The statement slammed the ultra-right conservative forces for falsifying the historic fact about the May 18 Kwangju movement for democracy without any reason.

It blasted those forces for posting on their websites a series of articles insulting the victims of the May 18 Kwangju movement for democracy.

To misrepresent the essence of the May 18 movement for democracy in which its participants fought to achieve democracy against the tyrannical rule was an act of infringing upon democracy, it held.

It demanded an immediate end to such acts as imposing double and treble damage upon those killed by the "martial law army" and their families and many other people.
