Japan's Plot for Reinvasion of Korea Flailed

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, February 20 (KCNA) -- The Japanese militarists' efforts to justify the adoption of their new "defense program" and the permission of the exercise of the "right to collective self-defense" under the pretext of "military threat" from the DPRK are nothing but a plot to reinvade Korea in league with the United States. Rodong Sinmun says this in a signed article Sunday, and goes on:
    The "military threat" touted by the Japanese militarists is a far-fetched allegation fabricated by themselves. They have joined in the U.S. vicious hostile policy toward the DPRK and its moves to stifle it and, therefore, the situation of the Korean Peninsula has reached the worst phase.
    After the Cold War, Japan restored the rights of belligerency and participation in a war under the pretext of "peace-keeping" and has dispatched "Self-Defense Forces" to dispute-torn areas to actively assist the U.S. military operations. Through this Japan has experienced a modern war and confirmed the principles of military actions. On this basis Japan is set to commit a war of aggression against any country, joining up with the United States or independently. Its first target is the DPRK. This is proved by the new "defense program outlines" allegedly to cope with threat from the DPRK and China. In their overseas aggression, they seek to invade the DPRK first and then China and other Asian countries.
    Their permission to exercise the "right to collective self-defense" is a very dangerous military step for removing a biggest brake lying in the way of realizing their ambition for the "Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere" in the new century which they failed in the past.
