Rodong Sinmun Ridicules Japan for Clamor about DPRK-Japan Relations
Pyongyang, November 27 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun on Tuesday in a commentary says that of late Abe group calls for the improved DPRK-Japan relations, but plays the role of advance brigade of its master the U.S. that pursues the carrot-and-stick policy, reading its face.

It goes on:

Japan's clamor about the improved DPRK-Japan relations along with its persistent anachronistic and hostile act fully betrays its shamelessness and duplicity.

Japan's mask drama to hide its true colors cannot work on the bright world as it has long pursued pro-U.S. policy.

Abe's oft-repeated intensified sanctions and the already settled abduction issue in chorus with the U.S. clamor about sanctions and "human rights" makes it clear that his remarks represent an extension of Japan's policy of kowtowing to the U.S. So the prospect for the DPRK-Japan relations for which Japan has longed will be further gloomed.

Japan should be mindful that if it approaches the reality with American style mode of thinking, it can never get rid of the dishonor of being "dwarf Japan," far from being treated as a "giant" of Asia it desires.

If Abe authorities truly want the improvement of the DPRK-Japan relations, it should stop talking about trite sanctions to which no one lends ear and whose injustice and powerlessness the U.S. itself admits and the abduction issue which has no justification, and should make a bold decision to admit its past crimes and take a new sincere attitude of bearing the historical responsibility for an apology and reparation.

Clear is the DPRK's stand.

The on-going moves of Abe group will deprive Japan of a chance to visit Pyongyang forever and find itself in a poor position hard to have it.
