Japan Urged to Behave Itself

KCNA

    Pyongyang, August 12 (KCNA) -- The Japanese government recently requested the U.S. to maintain the option to use military force against north Korea. This is little short of openly declaring to the world that it wants neither a peaceful solution to the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S. nor the detente on the Korean peninsula, says Minju Joson today in a signed commentary.
    It goes on:
    The Japanese reactionaries' ambition for reinvasion remains unchanged even today. They regard the present situation on the Korean peninsula inching close to the brink of a war due to the nuclear stand-off between the DPRK and the U.S. as a good opportunity for realizing their ambition for reinvasion.
    If the Japanese reactionaries finally opt for using the DPRK-U.S. nuclear stand-off and the situation on the peninsula for attaining their sinister aim in defiance of the unanimous desire and demand of the world people, they will have to bear full responsibility for the ensuing consequences. In that case they will meet nothing but a miserable doom, much less the realization of their wild ambition for reinvasion.
    The Japanese government should face up to the reality and behave with discretion.
    Japan should not stand in the way of a peaceful settlement of the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S., clearly understanding that it is essential for peace and security of Japan as well as those in the Korean peninsula.
