Rodong Sinmun Lambastes U.S. Acts Aggravating Tension

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

   Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The United States is making quite a noise about "resumption of the six-party talks" and "peaceful settlement of the nuclear issue" from the beginning of the New Year as if it were interested in peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and inter-Korean cooperation. But, in fact, it is none other than the U.S. which is blocking off all the access routes to them. A Rodong Sinmun analyst says this in a commentary today.
    Citing facts, he notes that the U.S. bellicose forces last year threw snags in the way of the movement for inter-Korean cooperation, going on a rampage in rash war games and arms buildup on the Korean Peninsula and thus glaringly revealed its true colors as the chief criminal in wrecking peace and security on the peninsula and desperately hindering the reunification of Korea.
    He goes on:
    There is no doubt that a war would have broken out on the Korean Peninsula, if the DPRK had failed last year to shatter the moves of the U.S. imperialists to provoke a war against it with its strong self-defensive deterrent.
    With no artifice can the U.S. conceal its true colors as the very one wrecking peace of the peninsula and seeking the provocation of a war against the DPRK and the disturber of Korea's reunification. The DPRK is sharply watching the dangerous acts of the U.S. which is still whetting the sword of aggression against it while making free with such phrases as "peaceful settlement" and "resumption of talks."
