STATEMENT OF UK KFA ON "FOAL EAGLE" AND "KEY RESOLVE" WAR EXERCISES

UK KFA Today issued a statement condemning the "Foal Eagle and "Key Resolve"
War exercises.
The UK Korean Friendship Association protests very strongly about
the decision of the US and south Korean authorities to stage the
"Foal Eagle" and "Key Resolve" exercises in south Korea from
March
3 to March 20.
These exercises are being held at a time when tension on the Korean
peninsula has increased owing to the anti reunification moves of the
Lee Myung Bak puppet clique.Also there are being held at a time when the
US imperialists and some others have become hysterical about the prospective
satellite launch of the DPRK and have gone as far to talk about "preemptive
strikes".We believe that it is very dangerous and irresponsible to hold
such exercises at this time as they could easily turn into a real war.

These exercises are aimed at intimidating the DPRK to stop it fully
exercising it sovereign rights as well to stifle its socialist system by
force of aims.

We demand that the "Foal Eagle" and "Key Resolve" exercises are cancelled
forthwith and that the US troops are witdrawn from south Korea.Let all
KFA sections rally around the DPRK at this crucial time.
