The Japanese authorities are working hard to tamper with history and grab Tok Islets, revealing their ambition for reinvasion, far from making an apology and reparation for them, the statement said, and went on:

A particular mention should be made of the fact that the anti-DPRK, anti-Chongryon (General Association of Korean Residents in Japan) campaign in Japan has reached an extreme phase as evidenced by the recent repressive racket against the offices of the Korean Scientists and Technologists Association, the Korean Amateur Athletes Federation in Japan, Chugai Travel Agency under Chongryon, etc.

The statement demanded the Japanese authorities stop at once the suppression of Koreans in Japan and make an apology and reparation for the past crimes.
