Pyongyang, October 31 (KCNA) -- The Third Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security was held in Belarus on Oct. 28 and 29. Present there were high-level delegates from 48 countries and 7 international bodies including foreign ministers of the DPRK, Belarus, Russia, Hungary and Myanmar. Choe Son Hui, foreign minister of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, delivered a speech at the opening high-level session. Choe Son Hui in her speech extended congratulations on the successful opening of the Third Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security, and said that the current conference is a political gathering of great significance in building partnership among countries and nations in Eurasia and promoting the creation of a secure, fair and just multi-polar world. She referred to the fact that the world’s biggest war machine called NATO incites an extreme anti-Russia confrontation hysteria and brings dark clouds of war over the entire Europe in the western part of Eurasia and the U.S.-led tripartite military alliance of U.S., Japan and ROK starts its full-scale operation to gravely threaten the security environment of the region in the eastern part of Eurasia. Today the global security, to say nothing of Eurasia, is badly shaken to the core, she said, adding that it is attributable to high-handed, arbitrary and double-dealing practices of the U.S. and its followers as they openly launch military invasion, interference in internal affairs and war schemes against sovereign states in a futile attempt to sustain their hegemonic unipolar world. In recent years, various kinds of bilateral and multilateral war games against the DPRK take place simultaneously and continue without any gap in time and space, involving a scenario of actual use of nuclear weapons and unprecedented war crisis is being created, she said, adding: What is more serious is that NATO that is literally responsible for the security in the North Atlantic, is becoming all the more unspoken in its moves to start military intervention in the Korean peninsula and the Asia Pacific and the emergence of the second version of NATO is beginning to take shape in the Eastern hemisphere. There is not a single country or nation that would willingly embrace other’s pressure and domination and it is the shared desire as much as it is the independent right of all sovereign states to grow their own strength and decide on their own course of development, she said, stressing that the DPRK will never stop even for one moment nor will it make the slightest concession in the road of bolstering-up self-defence capabilities for guaranteeing the dignity, prestige and the right to development and security interest of the state, and achieving peace in the region and the rest of the world. She said that the joint statement reflecting the unanimous desire and aspiration of mankind for independence, justice and peace is of profound value in strengthening unity and collaboration among nations in the region and in safeguarding the peaceful and stable environment globally. The DPRK government remains consistent in the stand to develop good neighbourly and friendly relations with all countries of the world championing justice and independence and fulfil the responsibility for an equality-based multi-polar world and global peace and security, she said. Meanwhile, she laid a wreath before the monument to the victororious patriotic war in Minsk City.
