Ri Chong Gyong, director-general of the Standing Council of the Korean Amateur Athletes Federation in Japan, said: The Lee group of traitors staged joint military exercises together with the U.S. when the nation was mourning the big loss to it, bringing the dark clouds of war to hang over the Korean Peninsula.

Not content with this, it committed such hideous provocation as malignantly defaming the celebrations of the Day of the Sun.

The federation will take the lead in the sacred struggle to make a clean sweep of Lee, confrontation maniac and traitor without an equal, and achieve national reunification, long-cherished desire of the nation, holding aloft the banner of the June 15 joint declaration.

Kim Jong Su, chairman of Central Standing Committee of the Union of Korean Writers and Artists in Japan, assailed the conservative media persons for talking nonsense in league with Lee. He declared that the nation will never pardon all the crimes committed by the group of traitors.

Ri Tong Je, chairman of the Association of Koreans in Japan for Peaceful Reunification, Pak Tong Ho, chairman of the Korean Students Union in Japan, and Ku Tae Sok, chairman of the Union of Korean Central Educational Association in Japan, stated that Lee would be forced to pay a dear price for his reckless confrontation racket.

They called on the Koreans in Japan to turn out in the struggle to eliminate the group of traitors.
