Dangerous stockpile of depleted uranium

 


 

Of late, it has been revealed that the US air force in south Korea has kept 1.8 million rounds of depleted uranium at the 10th wing of the air force in Suwon and Hwaseong, south Korea.

The shell is loaded with depleted uranium produced in the process of enrichment of uranium for nuclear weapon and reactor.

The use of depleted uranium shell touched off a big splash at home and abroad as it broke out leukemia and cancer after the US army used first in the Gulf War in 1991 and it was defined as a weapon of mass destruction in the international community.

It is amazing that the depleted uranium causing environmental pollution and noxious to the human body have been kept in south Korea.  

However, the south Korean authorities have insisted that the stockpile of the depleted uranium shell will pose no problem as it was agreed between the south Korean and the US military. They have taken good care of it and kept it in good condition.

If a horrible accident happens, the US wouldn’t take the responsibility for it and the only south Korean people will suffer disaster.

The current situation shows that the south Korean people can never escape from nuclear holocaust as long as the US and pro-US boot licking elements exist.

The AINDF would launch a dynamic action to smash moves of nuclear war of the US and the south Korean authorities’ sycophantic attitude toward the US.
