An article of Rodong Sinmun Sunday describes the puppet forces' desperate moves to put sanctions and pressure on the DPRK as a revelation of their sinister intention to undermine and do harm to the ideology and social system of the DPRK, with the help of outsiders.

The present puppet ruling forces have to draw a lesson from the miserable fate of their predecessors who met shameful ends while getting keen on escalating confrontation with the fellow countrymen in collusion with outsiders, the article says, and goes on:

The Lee Myung Bak and Park Geun Hye groups of traitors had worked hard to inflict sanctions and pressure on the DPRK with the backing of outsiders till the last moments of their withdrawal from Chongwadae since the first days of their office. But they only revealed their weakness and wretched appearance as losers.

The puppet forces have to ponder over the consequences to be entailed by their confrontation act of actively pursuing the U.S. moves for sanctions and pressure on the DPRK. It is as pointless as waiting for the sea water to get dry for the puppet forces to try to expect "effect of their sanctions".

The group of traitors standing against the fellow countrymen in collusion with outsiders has always faced miserable ends.

The south Korean puppet regime is working with bloodshot eyes to impose harsher sanctions and pressure on the DPRK while chiming in with the Trump group's tyrannical act of re-listing the DPRK as a "terrorist sponsor", but it will only be made to pay a dear price for such acts of treachery.
