The UK Korean Friendship Association (UK KFA) issued the following statement concerning the British Royal Navy hosting south Korean warships at Portsmouth:
   It has been reported in the media that two vessels from the south Korean navy , the  Destroyer Chung mu Gong Yi Sun Shin and the supply ship  Dae Cheong are visiting Portsmouth , the home of the Royal Navy and are being hosted by the Royal Navy . This is at a time when the British navy has vessels in Korean waters participating in the enforcement of sanctions against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
   It is not conducive to the mood of peace on the Korean peninsula for south Korean warships to visit other countries not conduct exercises for the enforcement of sanctions against the DPRK , the dialogue partner of south Korea. South Korea should not depend on other countries but should follow the road of independence.
  The British government and British naval authorities should not encourage or abet the south Korean military in anti-peace , anti DPRK moves.
