Koreans in U.S. Stage No-War Demonstration
Pyongyang, August 18 (KCNA) -- Koreans in the U.S. simultaneously launched demonstrations in Washington, New York and Los Angeles on Aug. 14 in solidarity with American peace movement organizations to protest the U.S. moves for igniting a war against the DPRK, according to the south Korean internet newspaper Jaju Sibo.

The demonstrators released a joint statement titled "The Trump government should stop north-targeted war moves at once."

Charging that Trump's bellicose remarks are bringing the danger of war to the Korean peninsula, the statement said:

Trump has fully revealed his true colors as a war maniac before the world by saying that the outbreak of war will kill thousands of people on the Korean peninsula only, not content with his reckless remarks about "fire and fury."

The peace treaty, to be signed soon after the conclusion of armistice agreement in 1953, has not yet been concluded due to the refusal of the U.S.

The ceaseless south Korea-U.S. joint military drills and north-targeted nuclear war drills under that abnormal situation caused the north's nukes and ICBM development.

Terming the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK the root cause of the danger of nuclear war on the Korean peninsula, the statement stressed:

The U.S. should give up its strategy for dominating Northeast Asia and hostile policy toward the north.

We strongly urge the U.S. administration to opt for dialogue and peace, not sanctions and war.

The U.S. should stop the north-targeted war moves at once and come out for dialogue with the north immediately.

It should declare the end of war and conclude a peace treaty.
