Pyongyang, May 28 (KCNA) -- Georgy Toloraya, director for research programs of the Center for the Study of Modern Korea under the Institute of World Economic and International Relations of the Russian Academy of Sciences, commented on the truth behind the case of the warship sinking of the south Korean puppet navy when interviewed by ITAR-TASS on May 26. Noting that what is characteristic of the present crisis on the Korean Peninsula is that it was deliberately created by the south Korean authorities, he added that they used the tragic warship sinking as a motive of dispute, in fact, and as a formal pretext for declaring a war in other words. The fact that the south Korean warship was sunken by a DPRK submarine attack has not been verified in actuality, he said, and went on: As far as the case of the warship sinking is concerned, where the south Korean warship and the imaginary submarine of the DPRK were at the moment the case occurred has not been clearly known. It is too early to draw any right conclusion as regards the above-said case. This being a hard reality, the south Korean authorities are conducting unprecedented propaganda campaign, far from waiting for it, and contemplating referring this issue to the UN Security Council. This is an action taken according to a script, and the United States, too, expressed support for it. Such action assuming clear political nature is aimed at slapping new sanctions against the DPRK to isolate and weaken it and at bringing it down. |
