U.S. Cancellation of Its "Plan for Cutback" of Its Forces under Fire

Panmunjom, June 9 (KCNA) -- The U.S. secretary of Defense and the minister of "National Defense" of south Korea held talks in Seoul on June 3 at which they officially confirmed that they decided to implement the agreement reached between Bush and Lee Myung Bak on canceling the "plan for reducing" the U.S. troops in south Korea as it was.
In this regard a spokesman for the Panmunjom Mission of the Korean People's Army issued a statement Monday.
This, in fact, amounted to confirming and announcing to the world once again the U.S. undisguised attempt to perpetuate its presence in south Korea and Korea's division, it says, and goes on:
The U.S. equipped with nukes and the south Korean warmongers going mad with the preparations for a war against the DPRK under its nuclear umbrella are getting evermore undisguised in their war moves. Under this situation the KPA cannot remain a passive onlooker to the above-said disturbing development, while abandoning its nuclear deterrence.
The KPA will never allow the U.S. to exploit the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula as a pretext for intensifying the moves for aggression against the DPRK and a fig-leaf for covering up them.
Should the U.S. and the south Korean warlike forces persist in their moves for a war against the DPRK as now, the KPA will be left with no option but to further bolster all its war deterrents.
The U.S. conservative hardliners and the present south Korean rulers had better behave themselves, thinking twice about to what extent the daily aggravating military confrontation with the DPRK will drive the six-party talks, the DPRK-U.S. relations and the inter-Korean relations.
