U.S. Hit for Destroying Nuclear Non-Proliferation System

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, May 17 (KCNA) -- The United States can never cover up its true colors as the criminal destroying the nuclear non-proliferation system nor can it shake off the responsibility for this, says Minju Joson in a signed commentary Tuesday. Noting that the NPT is now facing the danger of collapse, it goes on:
    The nuclear weapon states should speed up the process of nuclear disarmament and, at least, make it clear that they would not use nukes against the political independence and territorial integrity of the non-nuclear states in the spirit of the treaty.
    The United States, however, has so far pursued a policy of nuclear buildup, not nuclear disarmament, and gravely threatened the sovereignty of the non-nuclear states with nukes. And it must not go unnoticed that it has persistently sought an absolute edge in strategic attack weaponry over other big powers, regarding the increase and modernization of nuclear forces as the key point of its strategy for global domination The U.S. is the very one which has not only increased nuclear weaponization and threatened other countries but also fostered worldwide nuclear proliferation. Now a strong demand for the abolition of U.S.-made tactical nukes, a product of the Cold War era, is being voiced in Germany, but the U.S. is turning a deaf ear to it. Its stand is the same with the more than 1,000 nuclear weapons deployed on the Korean Peninsula.
    But this is not the whole story. It has directly supported the nuclear weaponization of Israel and tacitly connived at and fostered the bid of Japan for nuclear armament. Having stockpiled plutonium more than necessary, Japan is contemplating to operate a plant extracting enough plutonium to make 1,000 odd nuclear warheads a year. This is creating quite a stir worldwide, but the U.S. is feigning ignorance of this.
    As shown above, the U.S. is not only the ringleader of nuclear proliferation but also the real nuclear criminal who gives rise to a nuclear arms race destroying the worldwide nuclear non-proliferation system itself and the danger of a nuclear war.
