Pyongyang, December 20 (KCNA) -- The Director of Press of the Institute for American Studies (IFAS), Ministry of Foreign Affairs, DPRK made public the following statement on Wednesday:

Some U.S. media and experts are now groundlessly claiming that the DPRK is pushing forward with so-called "biological weapons development program" as a part of the "wild ambition for developing the WMD".

Properly speaking, it is the U.S. stereotyped method to cook up untruths as truths, stubbornly insisting that black is white and fabricating anything for satisfying their aggressive greed. And the U.S. itself is an empire of evils full of plots, fabrications, lies and deceptions.

It is the U.S. that conducts military aggressions and cruise missile attacks on sovereign states in broad daylight while faking up "possession of WMD" and "use of chemical weapons" of those countries.

It is none other than the U.S., chattering on "morality" and "civilization", the criminal state that massacred the Korean people by bacteriological weapons during the Korean War and inflict sufferings upon the innocent people by continuing even now to openly use the internationally prohibited weapons.

The barbarous bacteriological atrocities perpetrated by the U.S. imperialist beasts during the Korean War still stand in relief in our people's memories.

And they are also the American politicians and the white supremacists making conceived attempts for state terrorism and racial extinction through overt research and development of the biological weapons in the worldwide-scattered U.S. laboratories.

It is the shameless deed that these criminals are finding fault with us while turning black into white by talking nonsense of the DPRK's "biological weapons development program". This is nothing but a manifestation of heinous intention to condemn our dignified state as a "rogue one" with the purpose to internationally isolate our highly dignified state and to justify the U.S. sanctions and pressure on the DPRK. This is also the manifestation of a pursuit for excuse to provoke nuclear war on the Korean peninsula at any cost.

The DPRK, as a state party to the BWC, maintains its consistent stand to oppose development, manufacture, stockpiling and possession of biological weapons.

The more the U.S. clings to the anti-DPRK stifling move, in such a manner as a thief shouting to stop thief, by denouncing us as a state of "developing the biological weapons", the more hardened the determination of our entire military personnel and people to take revenge will be and the earlier the days of destruction of the U.S., an empire of evils will come. -0-
