The statement charged that during his junket to the U.S. Lee Myung Bak devised a "joint version statement" for boosting the south Korea-U.S. "alliance" in conspiracy with his master.

This is a criminal act and challenge to the July 4 South-North Joint Statement, which calls for settling the problem of national reunification independently and peacefully and on the principle of great national unity, and all the agreements reached between the south and the north, it said.

It expressed resentment at the anti-national and anti-DPRK policy by the bellicose forces who are calling for intensified "alliance" for aggression aimed at threatening the peace of the Korean Peninsula, blocking the reunification and imposing nuclear disasters upon the nation.

The statement urged the Lee Myung Bak "government" not to resort to the sycophantic solicitation diplomacy but opt for thoroughly implementing the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration.
