Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)

U.S. Chiefly to Blame for Arms Race

   Pyongyang, July 14 (KCNA) -- The U.S. loudmouthed "peace" and "threat" are, in essence, nothing but a synonym for bolstering up its nuclear armed forces and expanding its armament. The U.S. can never cover up its true colors as the mastermind of the global arms race and the harasser of global peace and security.
    Rodong Sinmun Monday observes this in a signed commentary.
    It goes on:
    With nothing can the U.S. justify its moves to build the missile defense system (MD) and its rhetoric about them is not worthy of even a passing note.
    What is clear is that the U.S. is keen to build missile shields against other countries, prompted by its wild ambition for supremacy, and this is sparking off a global arms race. The U.S. deserves to come under world public fire at all times for being a mastermind of a global arms race.
    By nature the U.S. is under the unavoidable biggest obligation to prevent the global arms race. It fostered and escalated the arms race in the era of the Cold War in a bid to put other countries under its control with a nuclear edge and gravely threatened and wrecked peace. With the Cold War coming to an end and the U.S. finding no military rival, it should not have pursued the arms buildup. There is the danger of new arms race, nuclear confrontation in the world and the situation is getting tenser due to the U.S. imperialists' policy for beefing up nuclear armed forces and expanding armament. The U.S. should abandon its wild ambition to seize other countries and dominate the world through its highhanded military actions.
    The U.S. bellicose forces will not escape international isolation and self- destruction, should they persistently pursue arms buildup and a war of aggression, going against the trend of the present times toward disarmament and peace and the wishes of humankind.
