DPRK Official Condemns U.S. for Its Germ Warfare


    Pyongyang, February 12 (KCNA) -- The United States is a special-class criminal as it had waged the germ warfare during the 1950-1953 Korean War, while attempting to use A-bombs in the war.
    Kim Hyok Hwan, section chief of the C.C., DPRK Red Cross Society, said this in an interview with KCNA.
    The October 18, 1907, Hague Convention and other international conventions put a ban on the use of poisonous and other gases and bacteria in a war action, he noted, adding:
    But, in the Korean War the U.S. used germ weapons in a planned and organized way in breach of international laws, and this fact had already been verified by various documents and testimonies of POWs.
    According to a declassified document at the U.S. National Archives in March 2010, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff gave on September 21, 1951, an order to start a large-scale spot test aimed to assess the effect of specific pathogen being used for germ warfare while under military operations.
    Reporting about this fact, Al-Jazeera of Qatar, MBC of south Korea and other media around the world condemned the bestiality and brutality of the U.S imperialism.
    International fact-finding teams, including a group of the International Association of Democratic Lawyers, visited the DPRK during the war to witness and confirm the atrocious germ warfare launched by the U.S.
    The germ warfare by the U.S. was unprecedented in terms of application means and method and viciousness, and it was aimed to exterminate the Korean nation from A to Z.
    It is the height of impudence for such criminal state to clamor about "danger of weapons of mass destruction." -0-
