They charged that the man tried to "illegally export a large vehicle which may be exclusively used as a ballistic missile launching pad to north Korea."

This does not deserve even a passing note as it is part of the anti-DPRK campaign launched according to the scenario of the Japanese reactionaries who frequently hatch plots against the DPRK.

Export or import of major equipment can never happen between the DPRK and Japan under the present level of the bilateral relations.

It is well known to everybody that the economic sanctions against the DPRK were part of the major contents of the hostile policy pursued by the Japanese reactionaries toward the DPRK for the past several decades.

Japan escalated economic blockade against the DPRK whenever the situation on the Korean Peninsula deteriorated.

Japan has taken the lead in "applying collective sanctions" against the DPRK, playing the role of a shock brigade in executing the U.S. policy to isolate and stifle it.

The Japanese authorities have long banned export banks from providing loans to the Japanese exporters who have business with the DPRK.

There are no elementary non-governmental trade, to say nothing of trade on the governmental-level and financial transaction between the DPRK and Japan.

A typical example of this is that Japan put total embargo on regular cargo-passenger liner Mangyongbong-92 from July 2006, terming it an "operational ship for abduction" and a "ship for illegal remittance".

The fictitious story about "illegal export" spread by them under this situation cannot be interpreted otherwise than another anti-DPRK charade.

It is nothing surprising that the Japanese reactionaries cooked up a new case as they have worked with bloodshot eyes to escalate the campaign against the DPRK while making far-fetched assertion that the satellite for peaceful purposes launched by the DPRK was a "ballistic missile".

The successive reactionaries of Japan have engrossed themselves in anti-DPRK hostile acts, leaving no means untried to meet their political interests out of inveterate enmity toward the DPRK.

It is absolutely ridiculous for the Japanese reactionaries to ride roughshod as if they had been waiting for the opportunity to present itself.

They are so keen on "missiles" that they kicked up such noisy "missile" racket.

This is, indeed, a mean and despicable demeanor aimed to secure a lever for putting "pressure" upon the DPRK.

The Japanese reactionaries are mistaken if they calculate they can get something through such mean farce.

The DPRK's cause of building a great prosperous and powerful nation is making dynamic progress despite the imperialists and the international reactionaries' increased political and military pressure, threat and blockade.
