Angolan Personages Blast Japan's Crackdown on Chongryon
Pyongyang, April 24 (KCNA) -- Angolan personages released statements on April 11 and 13 in denunciation of the Japanese authorities' suppression of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (Chongryon).

A vice-director of the international department of the Women's Organization of the Popular Liberation Movement of Angola said:

We express great concern about the Japanese reactionaries' unreasonable crackdown on Chongryon, the dignified organization of overseas Koreans of the DPRK.

The Japanese reactionaries' recent search of the houses of senior officials of Chongryon is stirring up strong protest and denunciation of the world justice-loving progressive people as it is an unprecedented crime.

We always express support and solidarity with Chongryon and Koreans in Japan in their just efforts to defend the national right and dignity.

The director of the social education department of the Committee of Angola for Friendship and Solidarity with Peoples said that the human rights abuses against senior officials of Chongryon committed by the Japanese reactionaries without any legal ground are a product of their base plots to fan up hostility towards the DPRK and Chongryon and deteriorate the DPRK-Japan relations deliberately and justify the lurch to the Right and fascistization.
