It is almost three months since the operation in the KIZ was suspended, the commentary recalled.

It is none other than the present "government" which sparked the crisis in the KIZ, it said, adding: This crisis was caused by its moves escalate the confrontation with fellow countrymen, opposed to national reconciliation and co-prosperity, it said.

It slammed the south Korean authorities for deliberately aborting even the talks between authorities of the south and the north, a gold opportunity for normalizing the operation in the KIZ.

It urged the authorities to immediately allow those who have businesses in the KIZ to visit the area.
