To keep up with it, the western munitions companies have been engaged in munitions sales contract with south Korea, and a German company is mulling selling 170 air-to-ground missiles worth 300 million U.S. dollars to south Korea.

The facts bring to light the real purpose of the U.S. and the West that have deliberately screwed up the tensions on the Korean Peninsula over the DPRK's nuclear issue.

Minju Joson Wednesday observes this in a bylined commentary.

One of the major purposes is to line their pockets with cash, the news analyst says, and goes on:

The Korean Peninsula has become the world's most dangerous hotspot where an accidental case may lead to a war as huge armed forces stand in acute confrontation.

Nevertheless, the U.S. and its followers provide south Korea with war hardware. This, in essence, shows that they seek to bring a war to the peninsula by escalating inter-Korean confrontation and disturbing peace.

It is very ridiculous for the U.S. to talk about "provocation" from others and "deterrence".

The U.S. should discontinue at once the dangerous move of pushing the situation on the peninsula to the extremes.
