They denounced the U.S. for putting unilateral pressure upon south Korea while persisting in demanding six trillion won, five times the previous upkeep, at the negotiations.

They urged the U.S. to pay the rent of the military bases as it has stationed its troops in south Korea for the purpose of world hegemony.

They noted that south Korean people from all walks of life are turning out in the struggle for a stop to and abrogation of the negotiations against the illegal and high-handed demand for the increase of upkeep of U.S. forces.
