A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea gave the following answer to a question raised by the Korean Central News Agency on December 5 as regards the situation in Syria getting worse day by day due to the reckless military moves of terrorists:
The terrorists of all kinds, who have been prolonging their remaining days in mountainous areas of Syria, recently committed sudden attack under political manipulation of outside forces and their military support on various regions under control of the Syrian government and army, destroying peaceful cities and villages and killing innocent civilians. This is a hideous crime against humanity which can never be justified.
What cannot be overlooked is that a new bloodshed occurred in Syria by the terrorists just at the time when the Arab people's hope and expectation for peace and stability in the Middle East are growing stronger thanks to the recent adoption of ceasefire agreement between the patriotic force organization of Lebanon and Israel.
The recent incident is a product of the vicious plots of the hostile forces to "demonize" the legitimate government of Syria from A to Z, create uneasiness and horror in Syria and, at the same time, reproduce the scenario of the massacre in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon in Syria again, thus pushing the situation in the Middle East to a catastrophic situation.
We strongly denounce the reckless military moves of terrorists in Syria and the sinister intention of the behind-the-scene forces conniving at and fostering them, and express full support and solidarity with the Syrian government and people in their just struggle to defend the sovereignty of the country and territorial integrity and settle the crisis, and the efforts of Arab countries to achieve durable peace and stability in the Middle East region.
