Japan's Talk about "Non-nuclear State" Mere Facade

Pyongyang, August 13 (KCNA) -- Japan has persistently painted itself as a "non-nuclear state" since the Second World War but this trumpeting is nothing but a mere facade, observes Rodong Sinmun Friday in a signed article. Japan has described itself as a "non-nuclear state," regarding as its "national policy" the "three non-nuclear principles" that ban the introduction, manufacture and possession of nuclear weapons but this is nothing but window-dressing for concealing the criminal nature of the state keen to realize its wild ambition for going nuclear, the article points out. Saying that a series of Japanese and U.S. secret documents declassified in recent years patently indicate how hypocritical the "three non-nuclear principles" advocated by Japan are, the article cites facts to prove this. What merits a serious attention is that the secret agreement reached between Japan and the U.S. which allows the tacit connivance at the transit through Japan's territorial waters and portcall by U.S. warships carrying nuclear weapons still remains valid as a diplomatic document, the article says, and goes on: What is ridiculous is that the Japanese reactionaries are busy taking measures to cope with the situation where secret nuclear agreements concerning the world peace and security are being disclosed one after another. It is impossible to hide an awl in a cloth bag. The successive regimes of Japan have secretly pushed forward their moves for nuclear weaponization under the signboard of the above-said principles. Japan started its clandestine research into the possibility of nuclear weaponization from 1967. The research into nuclear weaponization has been under way in real earnest since 1995. It is long since Japan's "non-nuclear state" ballad went bankrupt. This spurious signboard proved to be totally hypocritical. The Japanese reactionaries would be well advised to give up their nuclear war moves as they only precipitate their self-destruction. |
