BRIEF STATEMENT BY UK KFA CONDEMING FOAL EAGLE AND KEY RESOLVE

UK KOREAN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION
        London 25 February 2015
        The UK Korean Friendship Association totally condemns the planned holding of the "Key Resolve and "Foal Eagle " military exercises by the United States imperialists and their south Korean puppet cohorts . The exercises start on the 2nd of March  and will last untill the 24th of April .
                                   Given the duration and scope of the exercises plus the large amount of troops and miltiary hardware involved , these exercises constitute a start threat to  peace on the Korean peninsula and the world  as well as a severe challenge to the sovereignty and independence of the Denocratic People's Republic of Korea !.
       Some media outlets have stated that "Australia, Canada, Denmark, France and Britain plan to participate in the drill".  This smacks of an attempt by the US imperialists and south Korean puppets to try and create a multi-naitonal force to overpower and stifle People's Korea . We wholeheartedly condemn any British participation , however minor , in these exercises . Britain must not get mixed up in the schemes of US imperialism nor dragged into a second Korean War. It is time for the UK to have an independent policy on Korea and develop relations of friendship with the DPRK . It is indeed regrettable that this has been announced when a goodwill delegation of the DPRK, the DPRK Para Ensemble is touring the UK .

We call for the immediate cancellation of the exercises and for the withdrawal of any proposed British
participation in these insidious war exercises.
