U.S. Urged to Stop Its Rash Acts

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, January 15 (KCNA) -- Laporte, commander of the south Korea-U.S. combined forces, at a recent New Year interview said that the mission of the forces is to "maintain the deterrent force against north Korea" and they would carry out their "plan to bolster the combat power" by increasing the spending for high-speed transport ships and transport planes capable of rapidly moving huge armed forces in a bid to "maintain reinforcement capability on the Korean Peninsula in case of emergency." These reckless remarks are under fire by a signed commentary of Minju Joson Saturday. The commentary says:
    The DPRK can never overlook the fact that the U.S. is painting itself as a main factor of ensuring peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula, completely distorting and hyping the situation.
    His outbursts only disclosed the U.S. aim to increase the maneuverability of the U.S. armed forces and raise the effectiveness of their aggressive military operation actions against the DPRK.
    An extremely tense situation is now prevailing on the peninsula due to the frantic moves of the U.S. to make a sudden strike at the DPRK and occupy it by force of arms, availing itself of "upperhand of strength."
    Such being a hard reality, the U.S. is trying to beautify the mission of the U.S. armed forces in south Korea, talking about the "deterrent force against north Korea." This is nothing but a sophism and a foolish ploy to cover up their despicable true colors with a worn-out veil.
    The whole history of the anti-imperialist class struggle has taught truth that one should respond to the use of force in kind and this is the way of ensuring peace.
    The U.S. imperialists' increased military pressure upon the DPRK would only compel it to more resolutely bolster its forces for self-defence.
    The U.S. would be well advised to properly understand this fixed faith and will of the servicepersons and people of the DPRK and stop acting rashly.
