S. Korean Authorities Should Ponder over DPRK's Patriotic Appeal: CPRC Spokesman
Pyongyang, February 2 (KCNA) -- All Koreans in the north and the south and abroad ardently wish to see the inter-Korean relations improve and peace and stability settle on the Korean peninsula in response to the DPRK's new year's appeal for paving a broad avenue to independent reunification by polling their intention and efforts, said a spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Country (CPRC) of the DPRK in a statement issued on February 1.

The statement went on:

The south Korean puppet regime is, however, blowing the stereo-typed confrontation trumpet from the outset of the new year, bringing "north's denuclearization" and "its human rights issue" to the fore. It is crying out for establishing "a perfect alert posture" and taking "effective counteraction," vociferating about "north's threat" and "unpredictable provocation" every day, and busy making war drumbeats for invading the north everywhere.

We are well aware that "security crisis" much touted by the south Korean puppet regime, hyping " the north's threat and provocation", is aimed at saving Park Geun Hye from the crisis of impeachment though she is hit hard from all sides.

If the south Korean authorities opt for reckless confrontation and provocation in a bid to put the alarming internal situation under control, this may spill over into an unimaginable conflict and war and eventually lead to their shameful destruction.

They will only suffer bitterer disgrace and humiliation if they blindly toe the U.S. line, failing to properly judge the rapidly changing situation in the neighboring countries and being unable to discern who is real principal enemy of the nation, accustomed to clinging to coattails of big powers.

They should come to their senses and opt for carving out the independent destiny of the nation in response to the DPRK's offer of reconciliation before it is too late. This is the demand of all Koreans and the last advice of history.

If the south Korean authorities take the road of reckless confrontation and war in pursuance of the U.S. policy, defying the DPRK's sincere goodwill and appeal, the DPRK's tolerance and patience will go beyond their limit and in that case they will be held wholly accountable for the ensuing disastrous consequences.
