U.S. hostile policy toward DPRK denounced abroad
Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- Statements denouncing the hostile policy
of the U.S. administration toward the DPRK were released in Guyana and
Uganda. The Amerindian action movement of Guyana in a statement on March 28
denounced the U.S. for escalating its anti-DPRK campaign after the emergence
of the Bush administration. The administration pulled up the DPRK over the
non-existent "threat" from it and "human rights issue" and labelled it as a
"terrorism-sponsoring country", chiming in with Japan's row over the
"kidnapping" issue, the statement noted, and went on:
The hostile policy of the bush administration toward the DPRK is a grave
challenge to the aspiration and desire of the Korean people and the
international community for the improved relations between the DPRK and the
U.S., the termination of the Korean division and durable peace on the Korean
peninsula in the new century.
We strongly urge the U.S. to discard the anachronistic daydream and opt
to improve the relations with the DPRK at an early date and immediately halt
all its moves against the Korean people in their drive to achieve the
reunification by the concerted efforts of the Korean nation according to the
June 15 North-South Joint Declaration.
The Ugandan railway workers' union in a statement on march 26 expressed
deep concern about the situation on the Korean peninsula getting worse due
to the U.S. moves.
The statement noted that the U.S. deliberate moves to strain the
situation on the Korean peninsula are intended to invent a pretext for the
establishment of the "theatre missile defence" system now being rejected by
its allies.
The statement called on all countries and the peoples of the world to
pay due attention to the U.S. behaviour and strive to prevent the history of
the 20th century recorded with war and destruction from being repeated in
the 21st century.
The U.S. should compensate for the enormous material losses the DPRK's
independent nuclear power industry has suffered owing to the delayed light
water reactor project and take an approach and stand suited to the trend of
the times, the statement said.

Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- Paek Nam Sun, foreign minister of the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea, sent a message of greetings to
Somsavath Lengsavath upon his reappointment as deputy prime minister of the

between the peoples and foreign ministries of the two countries will

his responsible work.

Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- Cyprian President Glafcos Clerides
stressed that he would strive to further develop the relations of friendship
and cooperation with the DPRK, when he received credentials from new DPRK
ambassador Jang Myong Son on March 27. He hoped that the Korean people would

powerful nation and reunify their country.

Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- A friendship gathering with members of an
economic delegation of Netherlands was held in Pyongyang on April 3. Invited

the Three Principles of National Reunification" was brought out in book form

U.S. anti-DPRK war agitation under fire
Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- U.S. imperialist warhawks are becoming
more vociferous about the second Korean war after defining the DPRK as its
"No. 1 Enemy." In this regard rodong sinmun today in a signed commentary
says:
Blair, commander-in-chief of the U.S. forces in the Pacific, during his
recent junket to South Korea, let loose provocative outbursts that North
Korea is the "No. 1 Enemy of the U.S." and it is capable of striking South
Korea and the whole of Japan with missiles.
It is not strange that war outcries are heard from among conservative
hardliners of the present U.S. administration advocating a hostile policy
towards the DPRK.
Blair made such remarks at a time when the bush administration has
become more zealous in its pursuance of the hard-line policy to stifle the
DPRK and louder in its call for "cooperation" with Japan and South Korea for
a war of aggression. This is a manifestation of the U.S. intention to turn
to confrontation and war against the DPRK at any cost.
What the U.S. seeks is to incite enmity towards the DPRK among Japanese
and South Koreans in a bid to strengthen the triangular military alliance
and use it as a springboard from which to provoke a new war of aggression
and use U.S. allies as a shock brigade.
The U.S. is keen to convince the Japanese reactionaries of the DPRK's
"threat of missile strike at Japan" so that they may make the DPRK the
principal target of overseas aggression and deeply involve themselves in the
aggressive triangular military alliance system.
There is a problem to be tackled by the U.S. in strengthening the
alliance. That is South Korea.
The present U.S. ruling quarters are becoming increasingly assertive
before South Korean officials that top priority should be given to
"cooperation system" and "the alliance" between the U.S. and South Korea in
a bid to stem the trend towards improved inter-Korean relations. Blair's
South Korean tour was apparently aimed to serve that purpose.
It is clearly evidenced by the fact that he advocated the fiction of the
DPRK's "missile strike at South Korea" before South Koreans. By this method
the U.S. imperialists are fostering an atmosphere of confrontation with the
DPRK in South Korea and working hard to bring the process of inter-Korean
reconciliation back to the state of confrontation in order to attain their
aggressive aim.
The DPRK is fully prepared to strongly react to the U.S. hard-line
policy to stifle it. If the U.S. warhawks turn to confrontation and war at
any cost, the DPRK will make a thousand-fold retaliation against them.

abierta agitacion de guerra
pyongyang, 4 de abril (atcc) -- el diario "rodong sinmun" en el numero
de hoy inserto un comentario en relacion con que las capas belicosas de
ee.uu. fortalecen las maniobras para desatar la segunda guerra coreana
calificando a la rpdc de su "enemigo principal no.1". el comentario senala
en particular:
blare, comandante en jefe del ejercito estadounidense en la region del
pacifico durante su reciente permanencia en sudcorea profirio las palabras
belicosas de que la rpdc es el "enemigo principal no.1 de ee.uu." y aquella
podria atacar con misiles a sudcorea y el japon.
las palabras belicosas de blare coinciden con que la administracion de
bush recurre mas que nunca a la politica intransigente de aplastar a la rpdc
y habla de la "cooperacion" de caracter agresivo con el japon y sudcorea, lo
cual es una revelacion de la intencion de ee.uu. de tomar de todas maneras
el camino del enfrentamiento y la guerra contra la rpdc.
ee.uu. al inculcar al japon y sudcorea la hostilidad a la rpdc trata de
fortalecer la alianza militar tripartita y tomarla como trampolin para
provocar la nueva guerra agresiva y utilizar a las fuerzas aliadas como
brigadas de choque.
infunde a los reaccionarios japoneses el rumor del "golpe de misiles" de
la rpdc al japon para que este dirija a la rpdc la punta de agresion al
ultramar y asi se adhiera activamente al sistema de la agresiva alianza
militar tripartita.
en el fortalecimiento de esta alianza sudcorea se presenta como lo
problematico porque ahora impera el ambiente de reconciliacion y cooperacion
entre el norte y el sur.
por eso los actuales gobernantes estadounidenses inculcan a los
surcoreanos la idea de dar mas prioridad al "sistema de cooperacion" y las
"relaciones de alianza" entre ee.uu. y sudcorea para detener la mejora de
las relaciones norte-sur.
el objetivo de visita de blare a sudcorea tendria que ver con esto. lo
prueba el hecho de que blare peroro ante los surcoreanos el rumor del "golpe
de misiles a sudcorea" por la rpdc. de esta manera ee.uu. pretende crear en
sudcorea el ambiente de enfrentamiento con la rpdc y devolver la corriente
de reconciliacion entre el norte y el sur al enfrentamiento para alcanzar su
objetivo agresivo.
la rpdc esta bien dispuesta a hacer frente categoricamente a la politica
de intransigencia y aplastamiento de ee.uu.
si las capas belicosas de ee.uu. salen a toda costa al enfrentamiento y
la guerra le asestara el golpe de represalia mil veces mayor.
