Rodong Sinmun Wednesday observes this in a bylined article.

It goes on:

The campaign is a baseless mud-slinging at the DPRK's dignified socialist system.

The issue of human rights has never existed and cannot do under the DPRK's socialist system centered on the popular masses.

The group of traitors has frantically kicked up the anti-DPRK campaign over its "human rights" issue since the very day of its emergence. This is, in essence, a revelation of its heinous scenario to establish the same corrupt system of colonial fascist rule in south Korea in the DPRK.

This is a new version of a frantic campaign for confrontation to indefinitely keep the inter-Korean relations at the lowest ebb as it is an extremely reckless provocation to harm the DPRK's dignity and sovereignty.

The "human rights" campaign as well as the nuclear one is used by the anti-reunification forces at home and abroad as one of the basic means for escalating the confrontation with the DPRK.

It is the unanimous desire of the fellow countrymen at home and abroad and the demand of the trend of times to put an end to those moves and realize national reconciliation and unity in an effort to dynamically swim with the trend of the June 15 era.

The puppet forces would be well advised to face up to the trend of the times and properly understand the desire of the nation and halt their rash acts, urges the article.
