S. Korean Paper Urges "Government" to Stand against U.S. THAAD Deployment
Pyongyang, May 25 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Kyunghyang Daily News on May 22 carried an editorial accusing the "government" of yielding to the U.S. pressure for the deployment of THAAD.

The editorial chided the U.S. secretary of State for talking about the deployment of THAAD under the pretext of the "north's threat".

It accused a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of blustering that it was the principle of the "government" to naturally discuss the matter if the U.S. requests to do so.

This means the authorities' attitude of deceiving the people and, furthermore, disturbing peace on the Korean peninsula and stability in Northeast Asia, it held.

The editorial urged the south Korean authorities to clarify the stand of opposing the deployment of THAAD.
