During his visit to Europe including the Czech Republic, he expressed "thanks" to the EU for issuing a "statement" critical of the DPRK and implored European countries to express "support" and "solidarity" in the efforts for the early resumption of the six-party talks.

At the plenary session of the House of Councillors on April 28 he blustered that he would "make north Korea accept the presidential statement with a heavy heart" and "strongly urge it to return to the six-party talks and fully implement the joint statement". And at the meeting of the Budgetary Committee of the House of Representatives on May 7 he jabbered that "the six-party talks are the most realistic means for settling the issue".

His remarks are, indeed, impudent and shameless.

Explicitly speaking, the Japanese chief executive has neither face nor justification to talk about the six-party talks.

Aso seriously defiled the sovereignty of the DPRK, a basis on which any talks should be held, over its satellite launch for peaceful purposes.

Before the launch he declared "interception" as a state policy, issued an order to the "Self-Defense Forces" to shoot down the satellite and after the launch he termed it a "provocative act".

Everything he has done is a base behavior quite contrary to the spirit of respect for sovereignty and sovereignty equality, the life and soul of the six-party talks, in every respect.

One cannot but ask Aso so talkative about the resumption of the talks if he has a normal thinking faculty.

He is becoming so vociferous about the talks after violating and defiling the sovereignty of the DPRK, not prompted by his wish to see the talks prove successful and the Korean Peninsula denuclearized.

Japan has made desperate efforts to throw hurdles in the process of the talks throughout their history.

It raised the "abduction issue" irrelevant to the agenda of the talks, throwing a hurdle in their way and totally refusing to fulfil its obligation under the agreement of the talks.

Lurking behind Japan's talk about the resumption of the talks is a foolish aim to include the "nuclear, missile and abduction issues" in the agenda of the six-party talks under the pretext of the DPRK's satellite launch in a bid to secure a justification to turn it into a military power, realize its old dream of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" it failed to do in the past and evade the responsibility for liquidating its past.

The present Japanese chief executive is a descendant of the family of a wicked militarist maniac who was steeped in the ambition for aggression against the DPRK to the marrow of his bones, regarding militarism as a mode of existence generation after generation. His great grandfather forcibly walked away Koreans to Japan and forced them to do slave labor at coal mines. His maternal grandfather, a top-class anti-communist conservative, insisted that Korea should not be given the status of victor after World War II.

Born into such family, Aso asserted that Koreans "changed their names into Japanese ones" according to "their hope" though the Japanese imperialists forced them to do so and termed the Pacific war a "greater East Asia war".

It is now clear why Aso is trumpeting about the resumption of the talks though he is a boss of militarists in whose vein runs their blood.

What he seeks is nothing but a sinister aim to bring the issues irrelevant to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula to the negotiating table in an effort to becloud the nature of the talks and use them as a platform for realizing militarization and evading the responsibility for redressing Japan's past.

Availing ourselves of this opportunity, we would like to tell something to Aso.

The DPRK has already made it clear that there is no more need to have the six-party talks now that they have been reduced to a platform for encroaching upon the sovereignty of the DPRK and disarming it.

For the Japanese chief executive to keep peddling the issue of resuming the talks and "fulfillment of commitment" under this situation amounts to encroaching upon the sovereignty of the DPRK and interfering in its internal affairs.

If he persistently clings to the hostile policy toward the DPRK, unaware of what is happening in the world, he will suffer only bitter disgrace and ruin.
