KCNA Commentary Hits out at Park Geun Hye's "Confidence-building Process"

Pyongyang, October 28 (KCNA) -- The hypocritical nature of the "confidence-building process on the Korean Peninsula", south Korean puppet president Park Geun Hye's "policy toward the north", was brought to light in just a few months.
    Park talked about following "the third way" of improving the north-south relations based on "confidence" and giving priority to "confidence-building" and dialogue in adhering to the "principle of separation of politics from economy" before and after taking her office but these words disappeared and only reckless remarks inciting distrust and confrontation are heard from her.
    She has gone beyond the phase of uttering such negative words as "disallowance of the north's nukes" and "adherence to principle" but gone the lengths of talking a lot about such dangerous theory of war as "preempting a nuclear strike at the north" and "leading the north to changes" and the "theory of bringing down its social system".
    Park's "confidence-building process" which sounds like a foreign phraseology is no more than a theory of distrust and confrontation as it is of treacherous and anti-reunification nature in all aspects from its origin to its ultimate goal.
    It is rooted in the "Helsinki process" worked out by the U.S. and other Western forces in a bid to bring down the socialist system in East European countries in the last century.
    Had Park been truly concerned about the issue of the nation and reunification, she wouldn't have been carried away by something foreign, her master's work, but would have commenced her job on the basis of the good precedent recorded in the history of the inter-Korean relations.
    The two north-south summits and joint declarations specially recorded in the history of the nation serve as good experience as they made a breakthrough in the history of distrust and confrontation and ushered in a new era of unity, reunification and peace and prosperity.
    If she thoroughly implemented the historic declarations based on the idea of "By our nation itself", without using the word "confidence," this would precisely mean the process of confidence-building between the north and the south and the one of achieving unity and reunification.
    Park tried hard to conceal her true colors by wearing a veil of "confidence", claiming that she was "different" from traitor Lee Myung Bak. However, this only revealed the roots of distrust and enmity lurking behind it.
    A saying goes that a poisonous herb has its own noxious root. What Park and her "confidence-building process" have shown for the past 8 months are only distrust and confrontation.
    No sooner had Park taken office than she cried out for "resolute joint counter-action of south Korea and the U.S. against the north's provocation", asserting that the above-said "process" is "by no means an appeasement policy" and "it is based on military deterrence through south Korea-U.S. alliance".
    She uttered that "the north's dismantlement of nukes was not a precondition" but is now taking the lead in the nuclear racket against the DPRK after declaring her policy "urging the north to dismantle its nukes first."
    Not only her U.S. master's moves to stifle the DPRK but also provocative hysteria of the war maniacs of the south Korean puppet army are to be "absolutely trusted" and such behaviors deliberately going beyond the tolerance limit any time are tolerated.
    On the contrary, the joint declarations which should be regarded as cornerstones for the development of the north-south relations have been totally denied and actions demanding their implementation have become targets of distrust and suppression.
    When the south Korean puppet Intelligence Service recklessly opened to public the minutes of north-south summit on June 24 just 4 months after Park took office, people from various circles in south Korea reacted against it at once.
    "Now that the minutes of the south-north summit, the core of the confidence-building on the Korean Peninsula, are opened to public, how can inter-Korean dialogue be conducted in an honest and candid manner? It is our view that inter-Korean relations in the 5 years of the Park's government have collapsed." "The opening of the minutes of south-north summit is an unprecedented one. It brought to light that the process is not for trust but for confrontation."
    This is the conclusion drawn by the Korean nation and the judgment made by history of Park Geun Hye and her "north policy". -0-
