U.S. "Operation Plan 5027-04" under Fire

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, August 18 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists are these days making desperate efforts to put into practice the new "operation plan 5027-04" they worked out in conspiracy with the south Korean military. This is a perfect and detailed version of the "operation plan 5027", a scenario for a war of aggression against the DPRK. Its main aim is to use the U.S. Third Armored Army Corps as an overseas reinforcement unit, conduct an "operation for destabilizing the rear of the DPRK" through joint air strikes by the U.S. forces in south Korea and the south Korean army, start a "full-dress northward expedition" in particular and "siege and occupy Pyongyang".
    The U.S. imperialists are focusing their efforts on bolstering up their forces in south Korea in a bid to put their war scenario into practice.
    They officially informed the south Korean military authorities of the plan to "reduce" a total of 12,500 troops till next year through various channels including the 10th meeting of the Consultative Council for the Future of the South Korea-U.S. Alliance Policy Initiative. A shipment of military equipment of the Second Brigade of the U.S. Second Division has already left Pusan Port for overseas.
    They are busy with the transfer of their bases. Projects of expanding their bases in Phyongthaek, Tongduchon and other areas are being pushed forward.
    They officially announced that the guard duties in the joint security area of Panmunjom and their military posts in the Demilitarized Zone would be handed over to the south Korean army.
    Some time ago, U.S. Defense Secretary Rumsfeld hinted that the plan for the relocation of its troops would be rounded off sooner or later.
    The U.S. is massively deploying sophisticated war equipment in south Korea to fill up the "vacuum" to be caused by the rapid progress of the "reduction" of the U.S. troops.
    F-117 Stealth fighter bombers that operated in the Iraqi war were deployed in the U.S. airforce base in Kunsan. Earlier, various types of uptodate war equipment including PAC-3 missiles had been introduced into south Korea.
    Aegis destroyer equipped with missiles and the latest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier are to be deployed in the East Sea of Korea and its surrounding waters soon.
    The Bush administration's "reduction" of the U.S. troops aimed to carry out a new strategy is in the process of being rounded off step by step with the massive amassing of armed forces.
    The U.S. imperialists' frantic moves to put into practice the "operation plan 5027-04" lay bare their true colors as war fanatics.
