Russian Paper Denounces U.S. War Drill
Pyongyang, May 24 (KCNA) -- The Russian newspaper Tribuna on May 16 carried a commentary denouncing the frantic large-scale war drill for aggression staged by the U.S. against the DPRK.

The commentary said that the U.S. introduced the super-large nuclear-powered carrier Nimitz task group into south Korea to stage a joint naval war drill with the south Korean puppet forces.

It went on:

Warships and strategic bombers of the U.S. staged nuclear strike drills on the Korean Peninsula and its vicinity for nearly three months recently.

It is out of argument that the U.S. has denied the DPRK's proposal for ending the ceasefire.

However, media of the West depict the U.S. as "peace keeper" and the DPRK, which has never attacked others, as "bellicose country."

Pyongyang declared that it would not use nukes for military purposes if the U.S. threats are removed and the DPRK-U.S. relations are settled. But Washington has denied this.

The DPRK knows well about the situation in Libya and regards it as a suicidal act to abandon nuclear nukes. It is also aware that the mechanism for ensuring independent rights of sovereign states does not work in the international arena.

Recalling that a U.S. carrier task group took part in the Iraqi war, the commentary said:

The DPRK cannot see whether the Nimitz task group would wage the military drill and whether the drill will turn to an actual war.

Pyongyang has coldly responded with words only, controlling itself.

Why does the West regard all the statements and acts of the DPRK as threats whereas the acts of the U.S. and its allies as peaceful and civilized ones?

The reason for blaming the situation on the Korean Peninsula on the DPRK is all the same, i.e. the "emperor" rules the world and most of countries curry favor with it.

The world should not forget a historical lesson of the Second World War in which connivance at Hitler brought about worldwide disasters.
