In this regard, KCNA had an interview with a section chief, Hwang Myong Chol and researcher Ju Song Chol at the History Institute under the Academy of Social Sciences.

Question: Some days ago, south Korea's Kyunghyang Daily News reportedly carried some part of a conversation held between Lee Myung Bak and former Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda in July 2008.

As Fukuda said Japan was planning to mark the Tok Islets as its territory, Lee said, "It is untimely now. Please wait for a time being." What do you think about their conversation?

Hwang: Lee's remark means that he would recognize Japan's claim to the islets sooner or later. It is an absurd remark that can be made only by a traitor who takes no account of national interests.

Even a secretary of the south Korean embassy in Tokyo confessed he felt a sense of betrayal towards traitor Lee.

In this regard, a councilor of the Japanese embassy in Seoul ridiculed that Lee had a face to gloss over such a kind of matter with no difficulty.

Ju: Tok Islets have belonged to the Korean territory from thousands of years ago.

It is shameless enough for traitor Lee to try to hand over the Tok Islets to Japan in return for trivial economic cooperation.

Such treachery was committed less than half a year after he came to power. Indeed, he is a traitor as good as the well-known five traitors of 1905.

The Korean nation will surely force the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors to pay dearly for its crimes.
