U.S. ruling quarters' remarks under fire
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today in a signed
commentary denounces the present U.S. ruling quarters for disclosing their
intention to derail the process of national reconciliation and reunification
on the Korean peninsula, while talking about the "hardline policy toward the
DPRK". The commentary says:
Bush went the length of saying the U.S. would not have any dialogue with
the DPRK, asserting that a sort of verification is needed for North Korea
and there is no transparency in it.
Meanwhile, the U.S. imperialists are steadily beefing up their aggressor
forces including missiles in South Korea and its surrounding areas in a bid
to mount a forestalling attack on the DPRK.
The U.S. ruling quarters' tough remarks and bellicose moves reveal their
black-hearted intention to throw a wet blanket over the process of national
reconciliation and reunification gaining momentum on the Korean peninsula
and escalate confrontation and tensions there.
The U.S. imperialists are working hard to bring the situation on the
Korean peninsula back to the state of confrontation and tensions in a bid to
foil the process of reconciliation, unity and reunification of the Korean
nation and carry out their aggressive policy toward the DPRK and their
Asia-Pacific strategy, with South Korea as a springboard.
Now they do not bother to let loose such bellicose outcries as "hardline
stand" and "overall re-examination of their policy toward the DPRK" under
the absurd pretext of "threat" from it. All these facts go to clearly prove
that they made it a fait accompli to provoke a war of aggression.
The U.S. is well advised to bear in mind that the Korean nation will
keep to the road of independent national reunification chosen by itself.
It is foolish, indeed, for the U.S. warmongers to try to test the will
of the Korean nation for reunification by force of arms and this is a
dangerous move to bring about disastrous consequences.

Preparatory committee inaugurated in Switzerland
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- The Swiss committee for supporting
Korea's reunification and the cultural information center on the DPRK in
Lausanne, Switzerland, released on march 10 a press statement saying a
preparatory committee was inaugurated in Switzerland to commemorate Sun's
Day, the birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung, and it set the period
of commemorating sun's day from April 1 to 15 during which commemorations
would be held. The chairman of the Swiss committee for supporting Korea's
reunification was elected chairman of the preparatory committee.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press statement on commemorating Sun's Day released
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- The central committee of the National
Democratic Front of South Korea on March 24 released a press statement on an
enlarged meeting of its presidium held with the approach of the birth
anniversary of President Kim Il Sung, according to Seoul-based radio Voice
of National Salvation. The meeting discussed the agenda "On Grandly
Commemorating Sun's Day (April 15), birth anniversary of the great leader
comrade Kim Il Sung, as the greatest holiday of the nation," said the
statement.
The statement continued:
The meeting said that Kim Il Sung's whole life was the sun's history in
which he performed immortal exploits, which no other great men of history
could ever do, holding aloft the red flag of Juche and weathering out stern
trials of the revolution in the turbulent 20th century.
It said that thanks to leader Kim Jong Il, the sun of the 21st century,
Kim Il Sung will be immortal together with Kim Il Sung's Korea and Kim Il
Sung's nation and the cause of the sun in the 20th century is being
successfully carried forward in the new century, too.
It decided to send Kim Jong Il a letter carrying boundless veneration of
the vanguard fighters and people from all walks of life in South Korea and
their determination to be loyal to him and set the period of commemoration
events from April 1 to 20.
It was also decided that during the period the central committee of the
NDFSK, its organizations of all levels and patriotic movement organizations
would hold multifarious events including meetings and lectures according to
their specific conditions, contribute special write-ups to media and the
Pyongyang mission of the NDFSK would call a press conference to introduce
the South Korean people's ardent yearning for Kim Il Sung and their
boundless veneration for Kim Jong Il.

U.S. hostile policy towards DPRK denounced
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- The U.S. hostile policy towards the DPRK
is being denounced in different countries. The center of Indian trade unions
in a statement dated March 23 said that this year the U.S. is massing its
armed forces in areas surrounding the Korean peninsula and escalating its
military moves, thus revealing its attempt to stifle the DPRK by force of
arms.
We demand the U.S. give up at once its hostile policy towards the DPRK
and stop its moves to isolate and stifle it and opt to improve its relations
with Pyongyang, the statement said.
Angel Castro Lavarello, chairman of the Peru-Korea Institute of Culture
and Friendship, in a statement issued on March 21 noted that the U.S.
hostile policy towards the DPRK is a grave challenge to the desire of the
Korean nation and the international public to see the improved relations
between the DPRK and the U.S., an end to Korea's division and stable peace
on the Korean peninsula in the new century.
The present U.S. administration should immediately halt its moves
intended to seriously infringe upon the sovereignty and dignity of the
Korean people, faithfully implement the DPRK-U.S. agreed framework and the
U.S. quit South Korea at once, taking its lethal weapons and armed forces
with it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Japan's moves to distort its history under fire
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- The ninth-term South Korean Federation of
University Student Councils (Hanchongryon) issued a statement on March 22
denouncing Japan for its moves to twist the content of its history
textbooks, according to a news report. In the new century, too, the Japanese
right-wing conservatives are working hard to infuse into the rising
generation the twisted historical view on Japan's past history of aggression
and the aggressive and warlike nature in a bid to realise their old dream of
"Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere," the statement said, and continued:
What is more serious is that Japan's attempt to tamper with its history
through history textbooks aims at its re-conquest of the Korean peninsula.
History can neither be twisted nor erased. It will remain as it is.
We Koreans will never pardon the crimes committed by the Japanese
imperialists but force Japan to make an apology and compensation for all its
crimes at any cost.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Korean socialism praised
Pyongyang, March 30 (KCNA) -- Korean socialism is winning one victory
after another despite any adversity and ordeals as it is true socialism for
popular masses, said Victor Oliva Miguel, secretary general of the
Revolutionary Socialist Party of Peru, when meeting with DPRK ambassador to
Peru Ji Yong Ho who paid a farewell call on him on March 23. Korean
socialism is model socialism desired by the people of the world, he noted,
and continued:
The Revolutionary Socialist Party of Peru, which has the privilege to
have leader Kim Jong Il as its honorary leader, will continue to intensify
its struggle against the imperialists and for the building of socialism,
true to his army-first revolutionary leadership, and make efforts to develop
the friendly relations with the Workers' Party of Korea.
He denounced the U.S. for its hostile policy towards the DPRK and urged
it to pull its forces out of South Korea at once.

"rodong sinmun" denuncia "politica de intransigencia" de ee.uu.
pyongyang, 30 de marzo (atcc) -- el diario "rodong sinmun" en el numero
de hoy inserto un comentario condenando el actual circulo dominante de
ee.uu. que al hablar de la "politica de intransigencia a norcorea" expone
abiertamente la intencion de destruir el proceso de reconciliacion y
reunificacion de la nacion en la peninsula coreana. recientemente bush
expuso la intencion de renunciar el dialogo con la rpdc" al senalar que "es
necesaria la inspeccion" sobre la rpdc y "no hay transparencia".
los imperalistas yanquis no cesan de reforzar sus fuerzas armadas
agresivas, en particular misiles en sudcorea y su contorno con el fin de
asestar un ataque anticipado a la rpdc.
tales peroraciones intransigentes y maquinaciones belicosas de ee.uu.
son revelacion de su maligna intencion de poner fin a la creciente tendencia
a la reconciliacion y la reunificacion de la nacion en la peninsula coreana
y agravar el enfrentamiento y la tension, senala el comentario y continua:
en fin, ee.uu. se propone devolver la situacion de esta peninsula a la
fase del enfrentamiento y la agravacion de la tension, destruir el proceso
de la reconciliacion, la unidad y la reunificacion de la nacion coreana y
realizar su politica de agresion a corea y su estrategia de asia - el
pacifico tomando por trampolin a sudcorea.
ee.uu. pronuncia sin titubeo las peroratas belicosas como la
"confrontacion intransigente" y la "revision general" de su politica con
respecto a corea pretextando la "amenaza" de la rpdc. esto constituye una
clara prueba de que hace un hecho consumado la provocacion de la guerra de
agresion.
ee.uu. debe darse clara cuenta de que la nacion coreana debera seguir
hasta el fin el camino de la reunificacion independiente de la nacion ya
escogido.
la intencion del circulo belicista norteamericano de poner a prueba con
sus fuerzas armadas la voluntad de reunificacion de la nacion coreana es una
cosa absurda y una aventura peligrosa que puede ocasionar consecuencia
catastrofica.
