The British Branch of the Korean Friendship Association in a statement on June 5 accused the south Korean puppet army of setting up a target and daring fire at it, a thrice-cursed criminal act of hurting the supreme dignity of the DPRK.

Demanding the south Korean authorities make an immediate apology for their crimes, the statement fully supported the just stand clarified by the spokesman.

The Switzerland-Korea Committee and the Swiss Group for the Study of the Juche Idea in a joint statement on June 4 said that the provocation made by the south Korean puppet army is little short of a war declaration against all the Korean people.

There is a limit to the patience on the part of the KPA and the Korean people, the statement said, adding that should a war break out on the Korean Peninsula, the south Korean warmongers will be held wholly accountable for it.

The France-Korea Friendship Association in a statement on June 4 accused the south Korean ultra-right conservative forces of doing harm to the supreme dignity of the DPRK and driving the inter-Korean relations into catastrophe.

The statement called upon the world peace-loving forces to watch the present situation getting tenser on the peninsula once again and make every possible effort to defuse it.
