US-S. Korea Joint Military Exercises under Fire
Pyongyang, March 12 (KCNA) -- The British Branch of the Korean Friendship Association sent a letter to the U.S. and the south Korean chief executives on Mar. 4 in protest against the aggressive and provocative Key Resolve and Foal Eagle joint military exercises.

Strongly denouncing the U.S. Administration and the south Korean authorities for their above-said joint military drills, the letter said:

The drills aimed to invade the DPRK after mounting a preemptive attack on it are a grave threat and blackmail against the DPRK, not ones for defence in their scale and nature.

The U.S. has no right and reason to meddle in the issue of Korea.

The U.S. troops in south Korea are a product of policy of aggression and colonialism.

We urge the U.S. and the south Korean authorities to immediately stop the above-said exercises.

The U.S. forces should be withdrawn from south Korea at an early date and the south Korean authorities put an end to their acts of sycophancy and treachery.
