Pyongyang, May 1 (KCNA) -- Choe Ju Hyon, an international security analyst of the DPRK, released the following article on May 1:

The international community is getting vocal criticizing the "Washington Declaration" that stipulates the most hostile and aggressive action will against the DPRK.

The majority of the world public, including neighboring countries, term the declaration the "trigger for another nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula", "an act of inviting a wolf into Northeast Asia" and "a dangerous decision that will plunge the region into a further escalation of tensions and an evil cycle of arms race", warning of the significantly negative consequences to be entailed by it.

This is a fair comment of the international community on the act of the U.S. and the south Korean puppet warmongers to throw the present entire region deep into a terrible thermo-nuclear war, being not content with fomenting constant instability on the Korean Peninsula through their threatening rhetoric and greed-driven hostile military acts.

Against this backdrop, the U.S. egged on the south Korean puppet defence minister on April 28 to let out such paradox that deployment of U.S. strategic nuclear submarines does not go against the "joint declaration of the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula" and has no legal problems.

This is just the height of impudence and shamelessness peculiar to the U.S. that is no slouch at lies and plots.

Before debating on "legitimacy", it is necessary to recall the well-known fact that the farce of deploying nuclear strategic assets orchestrated by the U.S. has been a main evil source of ever-escalating tensions on the Korean Peninsula.

This is clearly proven by the fact that the regional situation aggravates explosively whenever nuclear-capable strategic bombers buzz around the sky above Korean Peninsula and nuclear carrier and subs make their unwanted appearances in the waters around it.

Specifically, the U.S. has deployed different nuclear strategic assets targeted at the DPRK since the outset of this year, making the military and political situation of the peninsula still drown in the quagmire of instability. Worse still, a timer is now ticking to ignite the fuse of detonating a nuclear war.

Too obvious is the intention sought by the U.S. in encouraging its stooge to paint its reckless confrontational nuclear asset deployment as "legal one", despite of the fact that it admits of neither excuse nor disguise.

It is just aimed to dodge the responsibility for the worst-ever nuclear-related crimes it has committed by systematically destroying and violating the nuclear non-proliferation system, and in particular, pushing the situation of the Korean Peninsula to the brink of a nuclear war through the establishment of aggressive and exclusive military blocs and frantic nuclear proliferation threatening human existence.

Lurking behind it is also a black-hearted design to hype the "legitimacy" of the regular deployment of its strategic nuclear submarine near the Korean Peninsula and thus invent the "legal justification" for openly bringing its huge strategic assets there in the future.

It is the hegemonic sinister aim pursued by the U.S. to turn the whole of south Korea into its biggest nuclear war outpost in the Far East and effectively use it for attaining its strategy for dominating the world.

The U.S. is sadly mistaken if it thinks that it can twist the truth with petty verbal tricks and turn black into white.

Such sophistry as "legitimacy" touted by the U.S. can never help it hide its true colors as the chief culprit of aggression against peace and security of the Korean Peninsula and the region. -0-
