Press statement by Kim Yo Jong, Vice-Department Director of CC, WPK

Kim Yo Jong, Vice-Department Director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Thursday issued the following press statement titled "Hope of Seoul Is Nothing but a Foolish Dream":

The Republic of Korea has a dream of spring at an unseasonable time.

Media of the Republic of Korea made a supposition on August 12 that thoughts of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea may be conveyed to the US side at the Russia-US summit meeting to be held soon. This is a typical proof that the Republic of Korea is having a false dream.

If a dream is dreamed very often, it will be an empty one, and so many suppositions will lead to so many contradictions that will not be solved.

Why should we send a message to the US side.

I would like to remind again the world that is listening to the news of the ROK media spreading false suppositions. We have nothing to do with the United States.

I have already said clearly that the special personal relations between the top leaders of the DPRK and the United States will not be reflected in the policy and that if the United States persists with the outdated way of thinking, the meeting between the top leaders will remain only the "hope" of the US side.

We are not at all interested in talks that are obsessed with the irreversible past, and there is no more need to explain the reason.

I take this opportunity to comment on the fact that the Republic of Korea is misleading the public opinion by saying that we have removed the loudspeakers installed on the southern border area.

Recently, the Republic of Korea has tried to mislead public opinion by saying that its "goodwill measures" and "appeasement policy" are meeting a response, as well as to create public opinion that the DPRK-ROK relations are being "restored".

The president of the Republic of Korea said that after they first removed the loudspeakers facing towards the DPRK, we, too, seemed to be removing some loudspeakers, hoping that such each other's measures as removing "unnecessary and costly loudspeakers" would help improve the "inter-Korean relations".

Shortly ago, the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Republic of Korea, too, announced that loudspeaker removal by the DPRK was seen near the border area.

The irony is that after hearing the military announcement, the authorities and experts of the Republic of Korea are describing it as a "response measure" and "change sensing" and a "positive response".

Stating the fact first, it is unfounded unilateral supposition and a red herring.

We have never removed loudspeakers installed on the border area and are not willing to remove them.

I think that by getting rid of the measures taken unilaterally during the Yoon Suk Yeol regime, the present government of the Republic of Korea seems to be trying to meet someone's response and be praised for "such a good deed".

As to the joint military drills, it is pretending hard to make proactive efforts for detente, talking about adjustment and postponement. But it does not deserve praise and will prove futile.

The rulers of Seoul have some object in building up the public opinion while embellishing their new policy towards the DPRK.

It is their foolish calculation that if they manage to make us respond to their actions, it would be good, and if not, their actions will at least reflect their "efforts for detente" and they will be able to shift the responsibility for the escalation of tensions onto the DPRK and win the support of the world.

However, such a trick is nothing but a "pipe dream" and it does not arouse our interest at all.

Whether the Republic of Korea withdraws its loudspeakers or not, stops broadcasting or not, postpones its military exercises or not and scales them down or not, we do not care about them and are not interested in them.

The shabby deceptive farce is no longer attractive.

I am confident that Seoul's policy towards the DPRK remains unchanged and can never change.

Although a filthy thing is wrapped with a wedding veil, it will emit a stench. And no matter how hard they pretend to be righteous and they beautify and justify their actions, they can never cover up the hostile intention.

The US-ROK joint military drills to be started on August 18 will undoubtedly bring the light to the hostile nature of the Republic of Korea again.

We have clarified on several occasions that we have no will to improve relations with the Republic of Korea, a faithful servant and ally of the United States, and this conclusive stand and viewpoint will be fixed in our constitution in the future.

It is a very just measure.

The Republic of Korea stipulated its wild ambition for unification by absorption in its constitution, organized the "US-ROK nuclear consultative group" focusing on preemptive nuclear strike at the DPRK, and regularly holds a confab. And it is engrossed in different war drills of aggressive nature, while repeating such a silly talk as "denuclearization" and totally denying our constitution.

This is the stark reality of the DPRK-ROK relations which the world sees today.

Our stand on a dangerous and base state which is imposing a constant security threat on the DPRK should be clearer, and the Republic of Korea should be permanently described as the most hostile forces in its true colours, which should be stipulated in our national law.

It is no different than the wish for a flower in the desert to expect or divine the change of our cognition towards the most hostile state in the world.
