Commenting on this, Minju Joson Tuesday observes: Had Lee felt even an iota of sense of shame, he should have apologized to the nation for having driven the inter-Korean relations to catastrophe before talking about "the resumption of Red Cross dialogue".

Citing facts to prove that far from doing so, Lee brought to light his ulterior intention to further bedevil the inter-Korean relations this year, blaring that the said relations cannot be improved through cooperation, the commentary goes on:

What he is seeking through his talk about "resumption of Red Cross dialogue" is to shift the blame for driving the inter-Korean relations to catastrophe onto others and divert elsewhere the bitter criticism of him.

The sinister aim sought by Lee in calling for the resumption of the above-said dialogue is proved by the fact that he appointed Hyon In Thaek who conceived the watchwords "no nukes, opening and 3,000 dollars" aimed at confrontation with fellow countrymen as minister of "Unification" whose job is to handle issues concerning the inter-Korean relations. It is needless to say that Lee's talk is nothing but a deliberate scheme to put a bar on the gate to inter-Korean dialogue. Such being a hard fact, "resumption of Red Cross dialogue" touted by him is a criminal act of mocking at the people's mindset.

He is working hard to use the issue of resumption of inter-Korean dialogue as a lever for tiding over his ruling crisis.

It is as clear as noonday that inter-Korean dialogue can never be resumed as long as the crafty political swindler remains in power as his deeds do not agree with his words.

Lee would be well advised to stop trumpeting about "the resumption of dialogue" as he is not entitled to say anything about it and step down as demanded by the people.
