Rodong Sinmun Dismisses U.S. Talk about Non-aggression Treaty as Hypocritical

 Pyongyang, November 19 (KCNA) -- The U.S. is now crying out for the denuclearization of the DPRK while talking about a non-aggression treaty, though it seeks to bring down the latter's social system and occupy its territory. This is the height of its shamelessness and craftiness. Rodong Sinmun Tuesday observes this in an article.
    It goes on:
    Clear is the aim sought by the U.S. in talking about its shameless and crafty non-aggression treaty while asserting that it would be friendly towards the DPRK when the latter dismantles its nukes. Its objective is to bring to the DPRK the same distress as what the Balkans, Iraq and Libya suffered in the wake of falling victims to imperialists' aggression after giving up their war deterrence, yielding to their pressure and taken in by their appeasement.
    The same can be said of the U.S. talk about measures for denuclearization of the DPRK which the former put up as a precondition for concluding the non-aggression treaty.
    The DPRK's dismantlement of its nukes first is not same as the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula in the conception.
    It is quite evident that the peninsula can hardly be denuclearized even after the DPRK dismantles its nuclear weapons under the situation where the U.S. openly makes nuclear blackmail against it after massively deploying nuclear strike means. In case this happens, the danger of war on the peninsula can not be defused but peaceful environment will be destroyed.
    This will not be confined to the peninsula only. The peninsula is the strategic vantage where the interests of the world nuclear powers are intertwined and the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world. A spark on the peninsula will, therefore, plunge not only the U.S. but the rest of the world into the scourge of a nuclear war.
    If the U.S. truly hopes for the improvement of the relations with the DPRK, it should stop calling for conditional dialogue and the improvement of the relations and making a brigandish assertion that it will conclude a non-aggression treaty with the DPRK only when the latter dismantles its nukes first. -0-
