U.S. Forces Urged to Apologize for Violence against Civilians

Pyongyang, June 23 (KCNA) -- The U.S. forces in Puphyong, south Korea should apologize for the violence they committed against south Koreans, a spokesman for the Democratic Labor Party of south Korea urged in a commentary on June 16.

GIs staged an anti-terrorist drill against Inchon citizens on June 12 when they were in a sit-in strike near their base in protest against the U.S. forces' environmental pollution, the commentary said.

The U.S. forces should never be pardoned for their crimes, the commentary said.

It called upon the people to turn out in the struggle to revise the unequal south Korea-U.S. "Status of Forces Agreement" and denounce the U.S. forces for their crimes.
