This whopping lie can be told only by those steeped in the idea of confrontation with fellow countrymen and fabrication of lies to the marrow of their bones.

Such social problems as drug use have never existed in the DPRK.

The DPRK, a signatory to the international conventions on drug control, strictly controls hallucinogenic and other drugs under international law as well as domestic laws and regulations.

What should not go unnoticed is the background against which such false report was released.

The people in the DPRK are waging an all-out drive to open the gate to a thriving country by effecting a surge in improving the standard of people's living and economic construction.

It was against this backdrop that the EU recently made a decision on food aid to the DPRK. And there are moves for food aid in other countries.

But the south Korean puppet group groundlessly pulled up the DPRK over "drug issue", an intolerable provocation prompted by its sinister aim to tarnish the image of the DPRK and put a brake on its drive to build an economic power.

The group is making desperate efforts to attach all kinds of labels to the DPRK while trying to plug even China into this plot. This is aimed to find a pretext for justifying the "May 24 measure" taken by it and drive a wedge between the DPRK-China relations favorably developing on a daily basis.

South Korea is a den of drug-related crimes.

Not only university students, company employees, housewives but even teenagers are get addicted to drugs with all kinds of drugs spreading in south Korea.

It is worth recalling that a "hallucinogenic party" was held by drug-addicted university girl students with foreigners, stunning society. There are increasing voices deploring that drugs undermine not only people's mental and physical abilities but social foundation.

The south Korean group of traitors had better ponder over the consequences to be entailed by their sordid moves to escalate the confrontation with fellow countrymen and plot-breeding operations against them, before bringing disgrace to itself.
