Referring to the confrontation with Russia escalating owing to the situation in Ukraine, he asserted that the U.S. regards the security of Baltic countries and East European countries as important as that of Berlin and Paris and cried out for applying the principle of NATO collective security to them.

The U.S. secretary of State said that the issues related to Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, Gaza Strip, South Sudan, Libya, Korea, etc. are the regional ones to be settled by the U.S. and the U.S. international leadership and involvement should be remembered as its genes.

Rodong Sinmun Thursday says in a commentary in this regard:

His assertion that its positive involvement and leadership would bring about peace to the world is little short of rhetoric of a fool.

The hegemonic position of the U.S. styling itself "the world's only superpower" is crumbling like a wet wall in different parts of the world.

Great irony is that the U.S. is not strong enough to put the situation under control.

The weakness of the military muscle, one of the strategic mainstays for the U.S., has already been brought to light and its dollar mainstay remains worthless.

Anti-U.S. sentiment is mounting and the U.S. is hit hard and isolated and rebuffed in different parts of the world. This is the present situation.

The Pew research center of the U.S. issued the results of opinion poll that 80 percent of the respondents expressed their objection to the U.S. excessive interference in international issues.

This goes to clearly prove that the world public is opposed to the U.S. reactionary and aggressive policy. The U.S. going against public mind-set is bound to go to ruin as it is an inevitability of history.
