Speakers said the south-north relations were driven into catastrophe due to the scattering of anti-DPRK leaflets by ultra-right group of "defectors from the north", branding it as a horde of betrayers dancing to the tune of U.S. moves for the division of the Korean nation.

They also denounced the south Korean authorities for not checking the reckless moves of the "defectors from the north", despite their commitment to stopping all hostile acts against the north like the scattering of leaflets in the areas along the Military Demarcation Line.

Moreover, the conservative group including the "United Future Party" is recently getting wilder, sheltering and patronizing the scattering of leaflets by the organization of "defectors from the north", the speakers charged.

A statement was read out at the press conference.

The statement said that the scattering of leaflets by the organization of "defectors from the north" funded by the U.S. is a link in the chain of the U.S. hostile policy toward the north and its moves for a war against the north.

The statement urged the "government" to thoroughly implement the Panmunjom Declaration, calling for getting rid of all the anti-peace, anti-reunification forces at home and abroad including the U.S. and its stooges like "United Future Party" and organizations of "defectors from the north.
