The organization in a press release issued at the press conference chided the U.S. for tightening the sanctions against the DPRK under the pretext of the "Cheonan" case, adding that there is no justification for the U.S. to do so.

The U.S. has more information about the warship case than any others but is tightening the sanctions against the DPRK, far from contributing to probing the truth about it by opening the information to the public, it noted, declaring that its move is little short of a provocative act of disturbing the stability on the Korean Peninsula.

It stressed that the above-said unjust measure for additional sanctions would prove ineffective and result in only deteriorating the situation such as the escalation of military tension and conflict on the peninsula and in the rest of Northeast Asia.

The organization demanded the U.S. lift the sanctions and opt for concluding a peace treaty as early as possible.
