Rodong Sinmun Tuesday observes in a signed commentary in this regard:

These moves are aimed at covering up its despicable true nature as provocateur of the Korean war and justifying the "sanctions" now in force against the DPRK and its moves to provoke a war against the DPRK.

The Lee group has worked hard to falsify truth and the real facts about how the Korean war was provoked, prompted by its criminal intention to follow in the footsteps of the U.S. imperialists and traitor Syngman Rhee that plunged the Koreans into the scourge of war. This is clearly exemplified by the following facts: The south Korean authorities fully participated in the PSI, a U.S.-led mechanism for a war of aggression against the DPRK, taking issue with its measures for bolstering up its nuclear deterrent for self-defence, they let loose bellicose outbursts that they would not "rule out even armed clashes" while amassing armed forces in the waters along the extension of the Military Demarcation Line in the West Sea and they are getting frantic in their dangerous "sanctions" against the DPRK.

The reckless acts of the Lee group remind one of the reckless military provocations perpetrated by puppet traitor Syngman Rhee on the eve of the war of northward aggression in the 1950s.

With neither plot nor artifice can the south Korean puppets cover up the truth about the war of aggression they started against the DPRK in league with the U. S. imperialists nor can they justify the evermore undisguised moves to escalate the confrontation with the DPRK.

Should the Lee group finally ignite a war against the DPRK with the U.S. imperialists, oblivious of the historic lesson of the June 25 war, it will perish in the flames kindled by itself, warns the commentary.
