Some foreign media are floating misinformation that the DPRK supplied war equipment to Syria, its airmen are directly involved in air-raids on insurgent troops in Syria, etc.

This is nothing but part of the foolish plots of the hostile forces to tarnish the image of the peace-loving DPRK and cover up their criminal acts of blocking the peaceful settlement of the Syrian situation.

It is the consistent stand of the DPRK that the Syrian situation should be settled peacefully through dialogue and negotiations as early as possible in the interests of the Syrian people free from foreign intervention on the principle of ensuring sovereignty and territorial integrity.
