Kirgyz figure criticizes U.S. hostile policy toward DPRK

    The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is a sovereign state.
    It is impossible in the 21st century to solve international problems by force of arms.

    This is an important work related to the destiny of the world and future.
    The world progressive forces hope that the NATO will be dissolved of its own accord as was the case with the Warsaw treaty was organization.
    The DPRK is a socialist country.
    The scenarios applied to Serbia and Montenegro and Iraq will not be workable in the DPRK.
    We demand the U.S. take hands off Korea.
    The letter warned that Bush should have sound thinking power and not forget the past lesson of the U.S.

"Final results of investigation" published in S. Korea under fire

    Pyongyang, July 3 (KCNA) -- The "final results of investigation" conducted by the "special inspection team" in South Korea into what it called "remittance to the north" only betrayed its narrow-minded view on the nation and brought shame to it, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary. It goes on:
    What merits a serious attention in the "results of investigation" is that the team deliberately linked the issue of "remittance to the north" to the historic Pyongyang summit meeting.
    It is thanks to the June 15 Joint Declaration that the process of north-south reconciliation has made progress despite such vicious moves of the U.S. to invade the north and the "Grand National Party" and other political parties, organizations and people from all walks of life in South Korea have been able to escape from the disaster of war. And they still benefit from it.
    No one can deny this reality.
    The attempt to link the issue of "remittance to the north" to the historic Pyongyang summit meeting is a foolish act which can be committed only by those who have neither political obligation nor an iota of conscience.
    The "final results of investigation" are intolerable as they are an anti-historic and treacherous action to downplay the historic significance of the Pyongyang meeting on the strength of the "law on special inspection".
    This case teaches a serious lesson that if one fails to properly judge and handle all the problems from a national stand, one will play into the hands of foreign forces and anti-reunification forces and put the inter-Korean relations into the danger of collapse.
    The historic Pyongyang meeting recorded a brilliant page in the history of the movement for national reunification as it was a great undertaking that brought about a new turn in the movement. No one can play down its historic significance and great vitality even a bit.
    The "results of investigation" are intolerable as they diametrically run counter to the vital interests of the nation.

    Pyongyang, July 3 (KCNA) -- Papers here today editorially congratulate supreme commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Il on his nomination as a candidate for the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK at the electorate meeting of constituency no. 649.

    His nomination is an expression of profound reverence and absolute trust of the servicemen and the people in him, the paper says, and goes on:
    It is the fruition of his outstanding leadership that the president's idea on state-building and his exploits have been firmly preserved and glorified despite the most difficult hardships in our country and the overall socialist construction is making brisk headway with the people's army as a hard core and a model.
    His nomination is an expression of the absolute worship and enthusiastic reverence for him which have been cemented in actual life for a long time. His authority is unchallengeable today and tomorrow as he leads the revolution in the van with his matchless outstanding political ability, qualification and lofty virtues.
    Minju Joson says that his nomination is a striking manifestation of the fixed faith and will of the army and the people of Korea to accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche to the last under his Songun revolutionary leadership.


No U.S. psychological operation will work on DPRK

In the work the president laid bare the true colors of the U.S. imperialists keen to get world supremacy and called on all the peace-loving people of the world to concentrate the attack on the U.S. imperialists.
    Rodong Sinmun says that the revolutionary banner of independence against imperialism provided by the president has been held aloft by Kim Jong Il.
    It goes on:
    Kim Jong Il's Songun policy is a decisive factor of guaranteeing a final victory of the army and people of the DPRK in the confrontation with the U.S.
    This policy is based on his determination to achieve a final victory in the life-and-death battle against the U.S. imperialists without fail and his strong national mettle to firmly defend the sovereignty and dignity of the nation with tremendous military power.
    The army and people of the DPRK are stalwartly standing guard over the forefront in the struggle against the U.S.-led imperialists, overcoming all difficulties with revolutionary faith and will.
    The Korean people have faith of sure victory and rare pluck that no one can defeat a people ready to die, high awareness to share their destiny with the headquarters of the revolution to the last and devotedly defend it in any adversity and strong principle and constancy not to abandon their revolutionary principle and conscience even though they have to subsist on gruel mixed with edible-grass, tightening their belts. Our revolutionary ranks are pervaded with this faith and will.
    Neither sinister "horror strategy" nor cunning psychological operation and bribing and destabilizing operations on the part of the U.S. imperialists can ever cut ice with such army and people.

"rodong sinmun" condena "resultado de averiguacion especial" en corea del sur

    pyongyang, 3 de julio (atcc) -- el "resultado de averiguacion ultima" publicado por el "grupo especial de fiscales" en sudcorea con motivo del supuesto "caso de envio de dinero al norte" constituye solo un acto que pone al desnudo a la faz mundial su concepto de la nacion estrecho y da verguenza a la nacion coreana. asi senala el periodico "rodong sinmun" en un comentario individual del dia 3 y continua:
    lo que no se puede pasar por alto en cuanto al presente "resultado de averiguacion" es relacionar injustamente el problema del "envio del dinero al norte" con el historico encuentro de pyongyang entre los maximos dirigentes de ambas partes de corea.
    nadie puede negar con nada el hecho de que gracias a la aprobacion de la declaracion conjunta del 15 de junio se impulso el proceso de la reconciliacion entre el norte y el sur aun en medio de las perversas maniobras de agresion de ee.uu. contra corea, el "partido hannara" y otros partidos politicos, entidades y distintos sectores de sudcorea pudieron evitar las calamidades de la guerra y tambien disfrutan ahora de la virtud de esa declaracion.
    por lo tanto, el intento de vincular el problema del particular con el encuentro de pyongyang es un acto imprudente de quienes carecen de minima obligacion politico-moral y conciencia.
    el presente "resultado de averiguacion ultima" es un acto antinacional para danar el encuentro arriba mencionado y como tal, no se puede tolerar jamas.
    el presente caso deja una seria leccion de que de no tratar justamente todos los problemas en la posicion nacional, se llevan las relaciones norte-sur a la destruccion.
    el historico encuentro de pyongyang esta registrado especialmente en la historia siendo un gran evento que trajo un nuevo viraje en la historia del movimiento por la reunificacion de la patria. nadie puede danar ni mermar su posicion historica e inagotable vitalidad.
    no podra ser tolerado jamas el presente "resultado de averiguacion" porque contraviene totalmente a los intereses de la nacion.
