Yonphyong Island Shelling Branded as Provocation to DPRK

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

Pyongyang, December 14 (KCNA) -- The south Korean authorities have misled public opinion by asserting that the recent case of the Yonphyong Island shelling occurred due to the DPRK. This is nothing but a revelation of the scheme to dodge their criminal responsibility for the grave military provocation and finally ignite a war of aggression against the DPRK by kicking off another armed clash on a larger scale.

Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this in a signed article.

Terming the shelling incident a provocation to the DPRK as it was carefully worked out in advance and deliberately perpetrated by the south Korean warmongers under the wire-pulling of the U.S. from A to Z, the article goes on to say:

The gravity of the incident finds itself in the fact that it was an intentional firing to kick off the military clash with the DPRK and a premeditated provocation aimed at thoroughly destroying the inter-Korean relations and igniting a war of aggression against the DPRK.

This is clearly evidenced by the racket for confrontation and war frantically staged by the puppet forces with the incident as a momentum.

The puppet group, in collusion with the U.S., has already worked out various scenarios for preemptive attack on the DPRK and is watching for a chance to put them into practice. What remains for them to do is to kick off a tremendous armed provocation going beyond the Yonphyong Island shelling and then ignite another Korean war.

The south Korean bellicose forces can never take issue with the legitimate self-defensive countermeasure taken by the DPRK nor can they dodge the blame for having committed the hideous provocation to drive the Korean Peninsula into touch-and-go situation.

It is a pipedream for the south Korean authorities to seek a way out in doing harm to the fellow countrymen by force of arms with help of foreign forces. Their desperate moves for confrontation with the DPRK and provocation to unleash a war against it will only reveal their bellicose nature before the entire nation and the world.
