Stop to Moves to Conclude Military Agreement with Japan Demanded in S. Korea
Pyongyang, August 14 (KCNA) -- South Korean civic and social organizations including the Solidarity for Progress and the Confederation of Trade Unions Sunday held a rally in Seoul urging the Lee Myung Bak puppet regime to halt its moves to conclude a military agreement with Japan, according to the south Korean Broadcasting System (KBS).

They in a resolution accused the Lee Myung Bak regime of making desperate efforts to conclude the General Security of Military Information Agreement with Japan at any cost.

If the agreement is concluded, it will escalate the south-north confrontation and result in perpetuating the split of the Korean nation, they said, adding this would run counter to the spirit of the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration.

They called for scrapping the agreement itself.
