The U.S. is persistently pursuing the policy to stifle the DPRK in a strategic intention to put the whole of Korea under its military control and use this area as a military springboard for the realization of its strategy to dominate Asia and Pacific, the commentary notes, and goes on: ��� The U.S. bellicose forces are peddling a logic that an "edge" of areas surrounding Asia should be seized to control this area in an effective way. By this logic they mean that the Korean peninsula as well as Afghanistan and the middle east should be put under their control so as to hold the Asian continent. So, the U.S. seeks to launch an aggression against the DPRK with South Korea as its military stronghold in a bid to swallow up the whole of Korea and, furthermore, dominate other Asian countries. ��� Once a war breaks out it will spill over into many countries of Asia and the rest of the world and humankind will suffer untold disasters. ��� The U.S., buoyed up by its self-claimed "victories" in a series of wars in recent years, are running amuck to ignite a new war in Korea. ��� If the U.S. unleashes such a war of aggression in Korea, it will meet nothing but a bitter defeat and death. A war will bring nothing good to anyone. The U.S. must clearly know who is its opponent, renounce its policy to stifle the DPRK and opt for peace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kimilsungia-Kimjongilia green houses built ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) -- The Kimilsungia-Kimjongilia green houses were built in Maengsan and Sinyang counties, South Phyongan Province. The houses have a tissue culture room, a cultivation room, and an exhibition room with equipment enough to control temperature, humidity and light with the solar heat and heating system to suit the growing conditions of the flowers. ��� The green houses will help implant more reverence for the peerlessly great men in people in the counties and distribute many more immortal flowers among them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Over 160 cases of aerial espionage committed ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialist warhawks maniacs committed over 160 cases of aerial espionage against the DPRK in December with the mobilization of strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes on different missions, according to military sources. The number of aerial espionage cases by U-2 high-altitude strategic reconnaissance plane, EP-3 special operational plane and E-3 command plane totaled more than 30. Meanwhile, they conducted aerial warfare drills in South Korea for a surprise attack on the north. ��� On Dec. 26 alone, they had drills of air battle, ground attack, air transport and long-distance navigation flight in the skies above Wonju, Phyongchang, Taegu and other areas with over 120 fighter-bombers, assault planes, reconnaissance planes and transport planes involved. ��� All those facts clearly betray their intention to make the DPRK the second Afghanistan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greetings to Fidel Castro Ruz ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) - General Secretary Kim Jong Il together with Kim Yong Nam, President of the Presidium of the DPRK Supreme People's Assembly, on Dec. 25 sent a message of greetings to Fidel Castro Ruz, first secretary of the central committee of the Communist Party of Cuba, President of the council of state and President of the council of ministers of Cuba, on the occasion of the 43rd anniversary of the victory in the Cuban revolution. The message extended warmest congratulations and comradely greetings to Fidel Castro Ruz and, through him, to the communist party, the government and people of Cuba on behalf of the WPK, the DPRK government and people on the occasion. ��� The message praised the heroic Cuban people for having successfully frustrated the imperialists' blatant moves to isolate and blockade Cuba and firmly defended the sovereignty of the country united close around Fidel Castro Ruz. ��� Expressing confidence that the fraternal friendly and cooperative relations between the two peoples would as always grow stronger in the efforts to accomplish the common cause of independence against imperialism and of socialism, the message wholeheartedly wished Fidel Castro Ruz and the Cuban people fresh success in their work for the prosperity of the country. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This year described as year marked with highest national pride ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) -- This year was a year marked with the highest national pride and self-respect of the Korean people under the great leadership of Kim Jong Il,says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. This year Kim Jong Il has conducted energetic diplomatic activities, performing great exploits for the Korean revolution and the cause of global independence, the article says, and goes on: ��� A particular mention should be made of the fact that his 20 odd-day long Russia visit this year marked a world startling historic event. ��� Thanks to his high international prestige, the DPRK could fully demonstrate its dignity and honor and the Korean people could vigorously hasten their march in the new century full of great national pride of having the outstanding leader admired by the world. ��� He made endless trips on field guidance to meet with soldiers of the people's army and people, and their ardent longing and reverence for their leader prevailed all over the country. ��� The DPRK will emerge victorious in the protracted revolution too, as it did flying high the red flag of victory under the leadership of Kim Jong Il in the first year of the new century. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greetings to Cuban foreign minister ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) -- Foreign minister Paek Nam Sun sent a message of greetings to his Cuban counterpart Pelipe Perez Roque on the occasion of the 43rd anniversary of the victory of the revolution in Cuba. The message expressed the Korean people's firm support and solidarity once again to the just cause of the fraternal Cuban people who are struggling in defence of the sovereignty of the country and the socialist gains, smashing the U.S. unwarranted sanctions and blockade against Cuba. ��� Convinced that the friendly and cooperative relations between the two peoples and the two foreign ministries would grow stronger in the future, it wished the Cuban foreign minister a greater success in his responsible work to carry through the external policy tasks of the Communist Party of Cuba. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Credentials to Kim Yong Nam from new Chinese ambassador ��� Pyongyang, December 31 (KCNA) -- Kim Yong Nam, President of the Presidium of the DPRK Supreme People's Assembly, received credentials from Wu Donghua, newly-appointed Chinese ambassador to the DPRK, at the Mansudae Assembly Hall today. Present there was vice-minister of foreign affairs Kim Yong Il. ��� Kim Yong Nam conversed with the ambassador, after receiving the credentials. _________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
