Spokesman for N. Side's Delegation to N-S High-level Contact Blasts S. Korea's Scattering of Anti-DPRK Leaflets
Pyongyang, March 29 (KCNA) -- The north-south relations have been driven into a catastrophic phase again due to the south Korean authorities' frantic scattering of anti-DPRK leaflets. The spokesman for the north side's delegation to the north-south high-level contact issued a statement revealing its gravity on Friday.

It says:

The south Korean authorities headed by Park Geun Hye dared take issue with the nuclear issue of their fellow countrymen outside Korea. Inside south Korea they are busy openly encouraging the operation to scatter leaflets against fellow countrymen and smear campaign against them.

The ceaseless leaflet scattering operation in south Korea is an open breach of the valuable agreement reached between the north and the south and the most serious act of treachery that can never be pardoned.

The north and the south reached a historic agreement at the high-level contact on February 14 in which they solemnly stated to the nation that they would refrain from slandering each other.

But the situation is quite contrary to our expectation.

It is because the pledge which south Korea made upon authorization of Park Geun Hye turned out to be a smokescreen to cover up the leaflet scattering operation that was carried out at the connivance of the authorities and the smear campaign against the north that has gone beyond the tolerance limit.

We cannot but query is it Park's style negotiating tactics to produce a honeyed agreement in a bid to attain her goal and is it her special skill for "confidence-building" as she is unhesitatingly reneging on the agreement under such absurd pretexts as "nature of social system" and "freedom of speech".

The leaflet scattering operation and smear campaign against the DPRK going beyond the tolerance limit are undisguised acts of declaring a war against the DPRK.

Park named the leaflet scattering against the DPRK a "balloon operation" and is making sure that a military posture is taken to cope with the possible counterattack of the DPRK.

In the long run, this tells that she is aware that a leaflet scattering operation conducted under the signboard of "balloon operation" is a dangerous source of a military retaliation.

We have long regarded the leaflet scattering by the south side as a declaration of a war and papers for sentencing death to human scum who orchestrated the leaflet scattering operations.

Does she really want to see such leaflets becoming a source of war for reducing the base of provocations to ashes?

She should bear in mind that now is the time to make a choice herself.

The more desperately Park is hurling betesnoires and conservative media into the smear campaign against fellow countrymen, the deeper she will find herself in an inescapable quagmire.

Those who go frantic with the anti-DPRK leaflet scattering and smear campaign against compatriots going against the trend of the times can never be called human beings with normal way of thinking and fair media persons.

All of them are without exception betesnoires disqualified to be members of the nation and top class criminals who will not be able to live in the peaceful and stable reunified country.

The more zealously Pak harbors betesnoires, the worse smell she will feel. In the long run, she will earn the ill fame of being an owner of huge dumping ground.

Ethics and morality are more important than politics.

A politician should be more human than any others and pursue justice and truth.

Otherwise she will consider the presidential chair as a commanding tower for smear campaign and make no scruple of throwing the nation into an abyss of misfortune by misusing it.

If the south Korean authorities are to have an elementary face to appear before the DPRK side, they should properly implement the north-south agreement, to begin with.

All compatriots are closely watching the moves of the south Korean authorities.
