U.S. Undisguised Move to Chill Koreans' Desire for Reunification under Fire

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

    Pyongyang, June 12 (KCNA) -- 15 F-117 Stealth fighter bombers and at least 250 U.S. air force personnel have been deployed in the U.S. air force base in Kunsan, south Korea, allegedly to test the capability to conduct operations under diverse climatic and topographical conditions, the U.S. forces command in south Korea disclosed a few days ago. In the meantime, the U.S. officially confirmed that it would supplement and reinforce "CONPLAN 5029", a scenario for a war against the DPRK that has been worked out under the pretext of coping with the "contingency on the Korean Peninsula".
    Commenting on this, Minju Joson Sunday says:
    The U.S. has taken a series of military steps to create tension and strain the situation at a time when various political parties, organizations and many figures from all walks of life in the north and the south of Korea and abroad have turned out to grandly commemorate the 5th anniversary of the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration. This can not be interpreted otherwise than an attempt to quell the spirit of the declaration, put the brake on its implementation and chill the Korean nation's growing desire for reunification.
    The U.S. was keen on anti-peace and anti-reunification actions whenever inter-Korean contacts were made and the nation's desire for reunification surged. Since the publication of the declaration, in particular, it has conducted those acts with added arrogance and ferocity.
    It has worked hard overtly and covertly to stem the trend towards national reconciliation and reunification, displeased with the inter-Korean relations that have improved in the spirit of the joint declaration. This is an unpardonable criminal act. No one is entitled to say this or that about the joint declaration reflecting the Korean nation's will and desire for reunification and interfere in the issue of Korea's reunification, its internal issue.
    The U.S. should face up to the trend of the times, refrain from doing acts obstructive to the Koreans' efforts to achieve independent reunification and improve the north-south relations and stop its moves against peace and reunification.
