Ulji Focus Lens-05 Joint Military Exercises to Be Staged
Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)
Pyongyang, August 20 (KCNA) -- The south Korea-U.S. "Combined Forces Command" announced that the Ulji Focus Lens-05 joint military exercises would be staged from August 22 to September 2, according to south Korean KBS Thursday. The command said that the exercises are aimed to assess and improve the combined system whereby to carry out operations on the Korean Peninsula.
The joint military exercises to be staged with huge troops and latest military hardware involved are fraught with greater danger of invasion as they are scheduled to take place at a time when the U.S. war preparations have reached their final phase. Moreover, these joint saber-rattling will be staged at a time when the process of reconciliation and unity is being promoted between the north and the south under the banner of "By our nation itself." These war exercises are arousing resentment among all Koreans as they are anti-national, anti-reunification acts of throwing a wet blanket over their ardent desire for reunification.
