Struggle against THAAD Deployment Mounts in S. Korea
Pyongyang, July 29 (KCNA) -- Elders of different social circles in south Korea held a news conference at the "National Assembly" on July 27 to denounce the authorities for leaving the destiny of the nation to the tender mercy of outside forces, according to the south Korean internet paper Voice of People.

The purpose of deployment of THAAD in south Korea is to carry out the U.S. strategy for holding supremacy in Northeast Asia, the strategy targeting the neighboring countries, they said.

The situation is reaching the dangerous phase of going back to the past when this land was reduced to shambles of war of foreign forces, they noted, deploring THAAD deployment would result in plugging south Korea into the U.S. missile shield and establishing a new Cold War system whose biggest victim would be the Korean nation.

The issue of THAAD is not only a matter for Songju County but also the matter of all the people and matter related to peace in Northeast Asia and the rest of the world, they said, and went on: To reject THAAD deployment is the only way to protect peace.

We will wage strong actions to check THAAD deployment. We will launch various actions such as demonstration opposing THAAD deployment, all-people signature campaign demanding the retraction of the decision on THAAD deployment and all-people rally.
