Lee Myung Bak Group's Treachery Censured by Overseas Koreans
Pyongyang, March 5 (KCNA) -- The United Confederation of Koreans in Ukraine (Ukrainian Kothongryon) issued a statement titled "The treacherous crimes committed by the Lee Myung Bak group during one year of its office can never be pardoned" on Feb. 27.

The statement said what cannot be overlooked in the crimes of the Lee group is that it has persisted in confrontation with fellow countrymen after inventing such watchwords as "no nukes, opening and 3,000 dollars."

It stressed that the June 15 era of reunification converted the north-south relations of distrust and confrontation, which had lasted more than half a century, into the relations of reconciliation and unity and this proved that "By our nation itself" is the noble patriotic idea for accelerating the independent reunification, peace and prosperity.

This notwithstanding, traitor Lee denied the historic June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and refused to implement them, thus committing the crimes against the nation and reunification, it charged.

The statement declared that the Ukrainian Kothongryon would not allow any factors deviating from the historic inter-Korean declarations but defend and implement the declarations for the reunification of the country and the prosperity of the nation.
