S. Korea and U.S. to stage joint war exercises

KCNA     Pyongyang, February 19 (KCNA) -- The South Korea-U.S. combined forces command announced on Feb. 17 that it would stage two joint military exercises from March 4 to April 2, according to South Korean KBS. They are the "reception, staging, onward movement and integration" exercise, a combined commanding exercise, and "Foal Eagle" exercise, a large-scale field mobile exercise. More than 200,000 troops will participate in them. They will include the U.S. troops present in South Korea and the South Korean forces, 5,000-strong U.S. reinforcements, aircraft carriers and other military hardware.
    The plan to stage month-long large-scale joint war exercises announced by warhawks at a time when the situation on the Korean Peninsula is getting tenser over the nuclear issue there goes to clearly prove that the U.S. reckless plan for a nuclear war has entered the phase of practical implementation.
