U.S. Opponents to DPRK-U.S. Negotiations Must Be Prudentn
Pyongyang, February 24 (KCNA) -- Commentary titled "U.S. opponents to DPRK-U.S. negotiations have to be prudent" was issued by Jong Hyon on Sunday.

The world sincerely hopes for good results from the second DPRK-U.S. summit talks, welcoming the positive trend observed in the DPRK-U.S. negotiations in the New Year, says the commentary, and goes on:

But the Democratic Party of the U.S. and other opponents to the negotiations move overtly and covertly to disrupt them as supported by skepticism backed by all sorts of groundless stories and misinformation even at such a crucial moment as now.

Recently, the director of the U.S. National Intelligence Agency and other information authorities at a hearing sponsored by the Intelligence Committee of the Senate accused the DPRK of still devoting itself to long-range nuclear missile development based on ungrounded stories, thereby chilling the atmosphere for the negotiations.

This was joined by the publication of a false report by an international security cooperation center of a university in the U.S. which put it that the north seemed to have kept nuclear fuel production during the DPRK-U.S. negotiations and to have produced more nuclear materials for a great deal of nuclear weapons.

It is absolutely as foolhardy as expecting to see a chicken turning into a phoenix to expect proper comment from the U.S. intelligence agencies as they have it as their basic mission to claim white to be black and lie to be truth out of skepticism about others inherent to them.

The supreme national interests of any country are security.

Throughout the U.S. history, no example can be found by which the U.S. regimes tried to properly settle the DPRK-U.S. relations. The "strategic patience" policy, reflective of the self-abandonment of the Obama administration, was the worst blunder.

It is nothing strange that the politicians of the Democratic Party now find them so embarrassed as the success in the DPRK-U.S. negotiations will shed light on their past mistake.

There is another intention pursued by the "story of skepticism about the north's denuclearization" spread by the opponents to the DPRK-U.S. negotiations.

That is to lead the present administration's DPRK policy to failure, mar its foreign policy and meet their political greed for return to power.

Their only intent is to belittle the present administration's external policy and meet their political interests for power, rather than the U.S. security and world peace.

The Democratic Party seems not realizing itself lurching toward conservative, being lost to its own "authenticity" at the end of getting indulged in opposition just for the sake of opposition.

If the upcoming DPRK-U.S. negotiations end without results as wished by the opponent forces, the U.S. people will never be cleared of the security threats that threw them into panic and then responsibility will be placed on those due.

Those political groups, media and experts pushing the country's security to the brink have to understand that the overall interests of the U.S. guarantee the destiny of each political group and individuals.

Those opposing the DPRK-U.S. negotiations should discard a shallow view and look far into the future and use reason to see what will bring gain and what will bring loss.

The U.S. administration must not forget last year's lesson when it plunged the bilateral negotiations into a stalemate, being swayed by the opponent forces.

If the present U.S. administration reads others' faces, lending an ear to others, it may face the shattered dream of the improvement of the relations with the DPRK and world peace and miss the rare historic opportunity. That will be followed only by regret and compunction.
