KCNA Commentary on Height of Impudence

Date: 17/06/2020 | Source: KCNA.kp (En) | Read original version at source

Pyongyang, June 17 (KCNA) -- The north-south joint liaison office which had already lost the value of its existence and symbolic meaning was toppled down on Tuesday afternoon as warned by us.

The south Korean authorities are fully aware of why the office built under the agreement between the north and the south two years ago came to lose the justification of its existence and be abandoned.

But explaining the "attitude" towards this, the Ministry of Unification of south Korea talked nonsense such as "deep regret and strong protest", "violation of the Panmunjom Declaration and unilateral scrapping of agreement" and "due responsibility".

This is just like a guilty party filing the suit first.

Do they have the face to daringly talk about the violation of the Panmunjom Declaration and abrogation of agreement?

It is the height of impudence that they talk about our breach of agreement even though they have done countless things that should never be done.

The Ministry of Unification of south Korea impudently branded our people's coming leaflet-scattering against enemy as the evident breach of the Panmunjom Declaration.

Upon such awkward and shocking words, we stopped for a good time to consider whether it is human beings that we are arguing, before thinking about enemy and friend.

What leaves us doubtful is if those who connived at and left the leaflet-scattering by human scum "defectors from the north" as it is in violation of the agreement can stately talk about "our breach".

They are, indeed, brazen-faced.

The south side which has systematically breached and destroyed the Panmunjom Declaration, Pyongyang Declaration and agreements between the north and the south while openly doing all sorts of hostile acts including war exercises against the north has no qualifications whatsoever to talk about the violation of the agreement.

It is really questionable if Chongwadae of south Korea still wants to meet greater misfortune by neglecting such words.

The Ministry of National Defense of south Korea is equal to Chongwadae in failing to control its tongue.

Just like feared mongrel dog, it kept bragging and bluffing, rattling the dialogue partner and stoking confrontational atmosphere, making barks like track-monitoring, firm posture and strong counteraction.

Wrong words and actions are bound to bring ensuing result. It can be the story of setting Seoul on fire that was raised long ago or more horrible threats, and the south Korean authorities have to take care of themselves just in case.

They have to control their tongues, bearing in mind that the explosion in the Kaesong Industrial Zone can be a prelude to the total catastrophe of the north-south relations. -0-
