Fascist outrage against democracy
The
Park Geun-hye regime forcibly dissolved the Unified Progressive Party
of south Korea through a decision of the Constitutional Court and
deprived five lawmakers from the party of their membership as the
"National Assemblymen".
The
UPP, founded in 2000 as the successor to the Democratic Workers’ Party,
has launched a vigorous action for independence, democracy and national
reunification in the van in accordance with intention and demand of the
south Korean working people.
Progressive
democracy, independence and reunification, the UPP’s program, reflect
the demand and intention of the broad segments of south Korean people.
The
Constitutional Court made the decision on the dissolution in just
thirty minutes, charging that the program of the party is just like the
"Juche idea and Juche concept of the north" and the "north's
revolutionary strategy toward the south", and that its objective and
activities are aimed to "realize progressive democracy by violence and
to build socialism the way the north did in the end".
Now
freedom of a political party is ensured in the world and leftist
political parties are in full activity legally even in the western
capitalist nations. Elementary political freedom and democratic right
are seriously violated and a legal party was dissolved in south Korea in
the 21st century. It is the greatest criminal act against democracy.
The
people from various fields and international human rights organizations
denounce the dissolution, saying “it is a strangulation of democracy
and human rights,” “Judicial slaughter of party democracy” and
“Unimaginable political oppression in international community.”
The
dissolution is aimed to destroy the pro-reunification forces and check
the opposition party’s power by branding the UPP as the pro-north Korean
party. Meanwhile it is a sinister purpose of the Park regime to tide
over ever-worsening ruling crisis.
With
the dissolution, democracy met an end in south Korea and fruit of
democracy gained by bloody struggle of the south Koreans turned to dust
and ashes and south Korea turned into a notorious “Yushin” dictatorial
age.
Now
the south Koreans from all social standings, denouncing the dissolution
of the UPP as an intolerable fascist outrage against democracy and
human rights, turn out in the struggle to ostracize the Park regime.
