U.S. Imperialists Accused of Abusing Name of UN to Carry out Korean War

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

   Pyongyang, July 10 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists abused the name of the UN for perpetrating the last Korean war. This was a political fraud unprecedented in history, says Rodong Sinmun Tuesday in a signed article.
    It goes on:
    The U.S. imperialists massively hurled their forces and troops of their satellite countries into the Korean war. To justify this they carefully worked out a scenario beforehand to bring the Korean issue to the UN.
    Their Korean war of aggression did not go well from its outset according to their wishes.
    As the situation turned out to be unfavorable to them, they intended to straighten out it in the name of the UN. The U.S. forced the UN to call a meeting of the UNSC at 3 p.m. on June 27, 1950 at which an illegal resolution on providing "aid" to south Korea was adopted and an aggressive resolution on allowing U.S.-led armed intervention of its satellite nations against the DPRK was also adopted.
    In order to hurl more troops of their satellite nations into the war and escalate the armed invasion the U.S. imperialists instigated the UNSC to create U.S. forces-led "UN Forces" on July 7, 1950 and adopt a resolution on mobilizing them to the war.
    By nature, the "UN resolution" approving military intervention in the DPRK was illegal as it was adopted without the participation of the former Soviet Union, a permanent member of the UNSC.
    On July 8 Truman unilaterally appointed MacArthur, commander of the U.S. Forces in the Far East, as concurrent commander of the "UN Forces." On July 25 the U.S. imperialists set up the "UN Command" and allowed the U.S. forces and troops of their 15 satellite countries to go under helmets of "UN Forces" during the Korean war.
    They perpetrated indiscriminate destructions and mass killings, wantonly violating the UN Charter and international law and bringing unspeakable disasters and misfortune to the Korean people.
    The U.S. imperialists will always stand condemned by history for committing such unprecedented hideous crimes as perpetrating the Korean war with the mobilization of their huge forces and troops of their satellite nations under the name of the UN and thereby wrecking peace on the Korean Peninsula and bringing the war holocaust to the Korean nation.
