Against Whom U.S.-S. Korea Hoguk Military Exercise Is Targeted?

Pyongyang, October 31 (KCNA) -- The Chinese paper Huan Qiu Shibao on Oct. 26 carried an article titled "Against whom Hoguk military exercise is targeted?" The article recalled that the Hoguk military exercise that started across south Korea on Oct. 25 under the pretext of coping with "provocations" from the DPRK will last till Nov. 2 and that the U.S. Department of Defense announced that it agreed with south Korea to promote the building of a missile shield. Since the outset of the new century, the U.S. and south Korea have staged every year countless war maneuvers such as Ulji Freedom Guardian, Key Resolve, Foal Eagle and Hoguk, the article noted. "The missile guidance agreement" announced by south Korea reflects the U.S. scenario to carry out the strategy for dominating not only the whole of the Korean Peninsula but the rest of the Asia-Pacific region. The U.S. seeks ulterior aims in staging frequent joint military drills with south Korea, the article said, adding: First, it is to block the rapid growth of new military forces in the Asia-Pacific region. Second, it is to contain China in a tense atmosphere by pitting neighboring countries against each other and bind Japan and south Korea, in particular, to its tank and let them join in its actions. Third, it is designed to round off the so-called OPLAN 5029 under the pretext of coping with the DPRK's "military provocation" through threat and blackmail and test its tolerance limit and retaliatory capability. It is not hard to guess the U.S. Cold War-minded way of thinking. As a matter of fact, the DPRK is not afraid of any huge forces' threat and blackmail in the least. If south Korea persists in its saber-rattling, taking a high-handed posture towards the DPRK and pretending to be strong after binding itself to a U.S. tank without taking its consequences into consideration, it will be only south Korea that will suffer and it will bring a disaster to Northeast Asia, too. |
