U.S. Policy of Occupation of S. Korea under Fire

   Pyongyang, July 17 (KCNA) -- What the U.S. policy of occupation of south Korea has brought is nothing but evil and misfortune. The Korean nation can neither get rid of misfortune and pain, to say nothing of ensuring peace and security in Asia and the rest of the world, unless an end is put to this evil policy, observes Rodong Sinmun Monday in a signed article. The U.S. policy to keep south Korea under its occupation is a brigandish and criminal policy as it tramples down upon the dignity, sovereignty, security and interests of the Korean nation and an aggressive and hegemonic policy to invade the DPRK and put the whole of Korea under its control, the article notes, and goes on:
    The policy is also imposing the tragedy of national division upon the Koreans and blocking Korea's reunification in a bid to keep it divided permanently. This policy is also aimed at domination, plunder, massacre and other crimes as it violates the dignity and sovereignty of the south Koreans and inflicts all sorts of misfortune and disasters upon them.
    The criminal nature of the U.S. policy of occupation of south Korea, a hostile policy toward the DPRK and a war policy, has been brought into bolder relief today.
    The U.S. is stepping up the "relocation" of its forces in south Korea and transfer of its bases in it in a bid to launch the second Korean war quite contrary to the trend of the situation on the peninsula toward reconciliation between the north and the south and reunification of Korea. It is also putting spurs to arms buildup while increasing the aggressive role of those forces. It is staging madcap exercises and perpetrating military provocations to launch a war of aggression against the DPRK after massively introducing latest war means into south Korea. It is watching for an opportunity to invade the DPRK, while steadily modifying all sorts of war scenarios to mount a preemptive nuclear attack on it.
    The situation on the Korean Peninsula is so tense that a war may break out there any moment due to the U.S. imperialists' war moves and this has put all the Koreans in the danger of a nuclear holocaust. The U.S. imperialists' presence in south Korea is the root cause of aggression and war on the peninsula and the danger of aggression and war will not disappear as long as it goes on.
    The article urges the U.S. to roll up its criminal policy of occupation of south Korea and immediately quit it.
