Japan's Policy of Toeing U.S. Line under Fire

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

    Pyongyang, September 25 (KCNA) -- Japan's policy of toeing the U.S. line is aimed to find a way out under the U.S. patronage and support and attain its sinister purpose, says Rodong Sinmun Sunday in a signed commentary dealing with Japan's policy of toeing the U.S. line that has become all the more undisguised in the new century. The strategic goal of Japan's foreign policy in the 21st century is to hold the position of a political and military power in the international arena and exercise its influence, the commentary says, and goes on:
    It is the U.S. that the Japanese reactionaries believe as savior in attaining such a strategic goal.
    Japan has historically served the U.S. Japan's policy of toeing the U.S. line has become all the more vital and essential today. Japan seeks to obtain permanent membership of the UN Security Council, increase its political position in the international arena and thus become a political giant who exercises tremendous power in the new century. The world considers Japan's bid to be permanent membership of the UNSC as a dangerous attempt to bring another disaster to humankind in the new century. Under this situation the Japanese reactionaries seek to turn the public mindset favorable for themselves with the help of the U.S. and become a permanent member of the SC at any cost. That is why they serve the U.S. actively, meeting its demands. The Japanese reactionaries are persistently pursuing the policy of toeing the U.S. line, obsessed by a foolish ambition that they may reverse the situation and get permanent membership of the SC despite opposition of other countries if the U.S. helps them. Japan is set to emerge a military power and make a decision of permitting a war by law in a few years to come.
    Japan's intensification of its policy of toeing the U.S. line is a dangerous action of inciting confrontation and dispute and sparking off arms race in Asia. Meanwhile, the U.S. is seeking to draw Japan to let it play a shock brigade in executing its Korea, Asia strategy. Japan is seeking to dash forward militarization and overseas expansion under the active patronage of the U.S. Therefore, Japan remains as a root cause of threatening and harassing peace and security in Asia even in the new century just as in the last century.
    The Asian people are heightening vigilance against Japan's mean and criminal policy of toeing the U.S. line.
