The federal leadership expresses great resentment over the fact that the U.S. and the south Korean authorities launched another war exercises in the area adjacent to the DPRK, the letters said, and went on:

The U.S. and the south Korean authorities are accelerating the preparations for a war against the DPRK when it calls for disarmament.

The projected interception of the DPRK's satellite by the U.S. will be the greatest danger to peace of the Korean Peninsula.

The Left Bloc of the Austrian Trade Union Federation fully supports all measures taken by the DPRK to protect the sovereignty of the country.

The letters strongly demanded that the U.S. and the south Korean authorities immediately drop their provocative war policy toward the DPRK, stop the joint military exercises at once, withdraw the U.S. troops from south Korea and strive to ensure peace on the Korean Peninsula.
