Rodong Sinmun on Imperialists' Policy of Strength

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

   Pyongyang, March 28 (KCNA) -- The imperialists' policy of strength is fated to go bankrupt as it is an anachronistic policy going against the trend of the times and the aspiration of humankind.
    Rodong Sinmun declares this in a signed article today.
    It is the truth of history that the unjust and reactionary policy violating the desire of humankind for independence and swimming against the trend of the times toward independence is bound to end in a failure and those infringing upon the sovereignty of other nations are doomed to ruin, the paper says, and goes on:
    The imperialists' policy of strength is a breach of the international laws as it wantonly violates the principles of respect for sovereignty and equality.
    The U.S. considers high-handed and arbitrary practices based on strength as the basic means in executing its foreign policy for aggression. It oppresses and tramples down the countries that differ from it in ideology and system and disobey its orders with the military force. Such practices are a wanton violation of the international laws and an act against history hindering the sound development of the international relations. That is why the international community has called for breaking the old international order, which allows specific countries' policy of strength and high-handed practices, and establishing a new, fair international order.
    The imperialists' policy of strength is a criminal act of seriously threatening and wrecking the global peace and security and giving rise to the arms race.
    It is entirely attributable to this policy that peace has been wrecked and tension aggravated in different parts of the world.
    Moves for arms race are being intensified in different parts of the world as the imperialists have massively produced and deployed nuclear weapons and other modern war means and hardware, increasing the military spending. Today's reality indicates that new Cold War and nuclear arms race are near at hand. As long as the imperialists' policy of strength is allowed it is impossible to realize the aspiration of humankind after independence and peace.
    The imperialists' policy of strength is not an expression of their mightiness but a revelation of their vulnerability and it is no more than a last-ditch effort of those on the brink of ruin.
