US and S. Korean Authorities Accused of Spawning Nuclear Issue on Korean Peninsula
Pyongyang, July 16 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Saturday carries a by-lined commentary on the lapse of 54 years since the U.S. began arming its aggression forces in south Korea with nuclear weapons.

The nuclear issue surfaced on the Korean Peninsula mainly because the U.S. deployed many nukes in south Korea and worked hard to mount a preemptive nuclear attack on the DPRK. This is also attributable to the puppet warmongers who conspired with the U.S., the commentary says, and goes on:

The U.S. can never evade the responsibility for being the arch criminal who shipped nukes into south Korea to spawn the nuclear issue and stood in the way of its settlement.

If the whole Korean Peninsula is to be denuclearized, it is urgent to defuse the U.S. nuclear threat which compelled the DPRK to have access to nukes. If the U.S. is truly interested in the settlement of the issue, it should drop its attempt to attack the DPRK with nukes.

The danger of a nuclear war on the peninsula is increasing due to the treacherous moves of the south Korean conservative authorities, the lackeys of the U.S. The nuclear issue has not yet been settled despite the positive efforts of the DPRK. This is entirely attributable to the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors' nuclear racket and moves to ignite a nuclear war against the DPRK, the group utterly indifferent to the fate of the nation.

The U.S. and the south Korean puppet authorities had better reflect on their deployment of nuclear weapons in south Korea and steady increase of the danger of a nuclear war before pulling up the DPRK's nuclear deterrent for self-defense.

The U.S. and the south Korean conservative group should give up their foolish dream and stop at once the anachronistic nuclear racket and moves to ignite a nuclear war against the DPRK.
