U.S. Should Drop Its Hostile Policy towards DPRK: Ethiopian Figure

Pyongyang, January 7 (KCNA) -- Abdi Kedir, chairman of the Ethiopian Committee for the Study of the Independent Politics, issued a statement on January 3 in support of the policy of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) towards the U.S. laid down by Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un in a report at the Fifth Plenary Meeting of the Seventh Central Committee of the WPK.

He said in the statement that the U.S. has posed military threat to the DPRK and adopted over a dozen independent sanctions measures against it, far from responding to the DPRK's efforts for the improvement of the DPRK-U.S. relations and for the settlement of the nuclear issue with corresponding measures.

The U.S. is unknowing of the DPRK, he said, and went on:

The DPRK is led by HE Kim Jong Un possessed of outstanding leadership and it has the people firmly rallied around him in one mind.

It also has armed forces which are strong enough to defeat any formidable enemy at one blow.

It is a pipedream to deceive such a fortress with a thinly-veiled trick.

The whole world hopes for peace on the Korean peninsula.

The U.S. would be well advised to approach the settlement of the Korean peninsula issue with sincere and realistic stand, before it is too late.

The U.S. should drop its hostile policy towards the DPRK.

We fully support the policy towards the U.S. laid down by HE Kim Jong Un, regarding it as the most reasonable and realistic one under the present situation.
