Far from feeling responsibilities for the prevailing grave situation, the present puppet authorities of south Korea have behaved impudently like a thief crying stop the thief.

They are urging the north to re-open and re-link the traffic and communication line that have been cut off, while claiming that the DPRK is to blame for the situation.

In this regard the spokesman for the Policy Department of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK gave an answer to a question put by KCNA Sunday.

Revealing the confrontation and war moves perpetrated by the chief culprits who pushed the KIZ into the crisis of the complete shutdown while crying out for "normal operation", the spokesman continued:

Consistent and clear is the stand of the DPRK.

If the south Korean puppet forces are truly worried about the destiny of the KIZ and are fearful of the catastrophic north-south relations at a war-like state, they should take measures of stopping all the hostile acts and military provocations, the source of the prevailing situation.

Herein lies a way for re-opening the traffic, re-linking the communication line and putting the KIZ on a normal operation.

They should also know that this is the way for achieving the country's reunification and guaranteeing peace and prosperity desired by all Koreans.
