Remarks of Those Who Provoked Korean War Refute Rumor about "Southward Invasion"

Pyongyang, June 27 (KCNA) -- The United States has made every possible effort to make up for the bitter defeat it suffered in the Korean War (June 25, 1950-July 27, 1953) and cover up its true colors as the war provoker. But the historical facts can be neither forged nor distorted. The whole course of the war showed that the U.S. imperialists employed all tricks to unleash the war and abuse the name of the United Nations for perpetrating it. In particular, the U.S. imperialists clamored about "southward invasion by north Korea", the falsity of which was verified by confessions and testimonies of those involved in the war. MacArthur, commander of the U.S. forces in the Far East and commander of the "UN Forces" in the period of the Korean war, said when he was testifying on the outbreak of the Korean War at a hearing of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee in May 1951: In a word, the north Korean army was deployed far from the 38th parallel. It was a deployment for defense, not for offensive. Early in May 1950, the then U.S. Ambassador to south Korea Muccio reported to his country that there was scarcely any possibility of north Korea invading south Korea in the near future. Robert, head of the U.S. military advisory group in south Korea, told journalists toward the end of May 1950 that now there was no sign of the buildup of the north Korean army along the 38th parallel. Dulles, a warmonger, told MacArthur in Tokyo on June 20, 1950 that he could not find any possibility of "southward invasion" from north Korea. The military inspection team of the "UN Commission on Korea" in south Korea reported to the UN secretary general that it had not gotten any information on the "aggressive design" of north Korea. All the facts go to prove the falsity of the U.S. assertion that the Korean War was started with "southward invasion" by the DPRK. |
