KCNA Blasts U.S. MD

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, July 21 (KCNA) -- The U.S. is now working hard to input the European countries which newly joined the NATO into the missile defence system (MD). The Bush administration has reportedly negotiated with Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania and Bulgaria for several months and recently started negotiations with Hungry in a bid to establish MD in Central Europe.
    It is reported that officials and experts of the U.S. Defence Department have conducted frequent field surveys of areas in those countries where interceptor missiles are expected to be deployed.
    This indicates that the Bush administration is putting into practice in real earnest the new "theory of preemptive attack" it set out as the state security strategy in September 2002.
    The U.S. moves to establish MD in Central Europe are part of its reckless strategy to control and dominate the world with a military and strategic edge.
    The U.S. has zealously pushed forward the building of interceptor missile launching bases in Alaska and California and an early warning radar station on Aleutian Islands allegedly to defend its mainland.
    After inputting Japan and south Korea into MD in Northeast Asia the U.S. seeks to build this system in Central Europe in a bid to completely contain its strategic rivals in Northeast Asia and Europe.
    The moves stepped up by the U.S. to establish MD not only in its mainland but in Northeast Asia, Europe and the rest of the world are an indication that the U.S. is still considering Russia, China and other powers as its potential rivals even after the demise of the Cold War and working hard to completely contain them in the shortest possible time, taking the best advantage of its favorable political and military position.
    Such moves of the U.S. are very dangerous as they will spark a global arms race bound to lead to a new "Cold War."
    It is as clear as daylight that other countries will take measures to cope with the U.S. frantic moves for MD in a bid to retain a nuclear edge for world domination.
    This would trigger off a new nuclear arms race and the world would face a new danger of thermonuclear war.
    The U.S. MD is an extremely dangerous and rash act which will entail catastrophic consequences and disasters.
    The situation goes to prove that the peace, stability and prosperity of the world are unthinkable unless the Bush administration's wild ambition to dominate the world is held in check.
    The U.S. hegemonic and brigandish moves strongly convinces everyone of the justice of the steps taken by the DPRK to increase its capability for self-defence to be strong enough to repel any aggressors and pushes the DPRK to bolster its war deterrent force.
