U.S Accused of Sparking Arms Race in Space
Pyongyang, October 15 (KCNA) -- Shortly ago, the United States launched two satellites for "missile defense." It is now widely advertising this as a "success" and the like, claiming that it was something to be highly proud of.

Rodong Sinmun Thursday observes in a signed commentary in this regard:

The U.S. is busy stepping up the war preparations while paying lip-service to "peace." Not content with this, it is escalating the arms race into space. Such behavior of the U.S. cannot be interpreted otherwise than an unpardonable criminal act.

The U.S. recent satellite launch is a dangerous war move aimed at establishing a worldwide system for missile attacks, the commentary notes, and goes on:

The U.S. put a lot of small and large military satellites into space in a bid to conduct military espionage against other countries and step up the preparation for a new space war by use of them.

The U.S is talking a lot about "disarmament" whenever an opportunity presents itself.

The U.S has a huge stockpile of nuclear weapons and their delivery means, but it is busy mass-producing new type nuclear weapons and super-large bombs for destroying underground structures and other types of WMDs under the pretext of coping with "threat" from someone.

The U.S loudmouthed "disarmament" is hypocritical and nothing but a wordplay to deceive the world.

With no rhetoric can the U.S evade the responsibility for being the arch criminal increasing the danger of a war and escalating the arms race in space.
