Korean air force exercise under fire Pyongyang, June 2 (KCNA) -- The South Korean air force announced that it would stage a five day-long "2001 exercise for supporting air battles" from May 30 to be participated in by all its units and "examine its results". In this regard, Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary says: Participating in the exercise billed as a "drill for the best maintenance and the increase of the capacity for arms support" are F-4 and F-16 and other type fighters, training planes and transport planes of different types and helicopters. specially selected "elite ground crews and arms handlers" are set to undergo training under the simulated conditions of an actual war. To stage a drill of fitting planes with live ammunition and assembling bombs and examining its results under the simulated conditions of an actual war is a very dangerous development to be seen only on the eve of a war. This is a challenge to the joint meeting of political parties and organizations in the DPRK that discussed immediate measures and made an important proposal for opening the door of reunification by the efforts of the Korean nation on the occasion of the first anniversary of the publication of the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration and also a provocation to the north. The basic idea of the declaration is to realise the country's reunification independently by the Korean nation's efforts in the north and the south, the main agent of reunification. In order to achieve the independent reunification, the north and south should get reconciled and united and reject the foreign interference in the internal affairs of the nation. Nevertheless, the South Korean military authorities are favouring foreign aggressor forces' hostile policy toward the DPRK and giving spurs to the arms buildup and the modernization of military hardware targeted against it. Traitors to the nation cannot go scotfree while attempting to block the implementation of the declaration after rejecting fellow countrymen's offer for reconciliation and cooperation and joining hands with foreign forces. If they bring the north-south relations back to the state of confrontation and tension before the adoption of the declaration, they will meet irretrievably serious consequences. The South Korean military authorities will have to be entirely responsible for them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
