KCNA Commentary Terms U.S. Harasser of Peace

 Pyongyang, December 26 (KCNA) -- An American political critic who was a former member of U.S. Congress in a recent interview spoke ill of the present U.S. administration's foreign and human rights policies.
    Referring to the U.S. military provocations in different parts of the world which plunged not a few countries into wars, the critic commented that it is not an exaggeration to say that the third World War has already started due to the U.S. foreign policy for aggression.
    This is in denunciation of the arch criminal that escalated tension and harassed peace by plunging the world into the crucible of war to meet the ambition for world domination.
    The U.S. fattened after the Second World War is causing wars and armed conflicts in different parts of the world nonstop to lord it over as "emperor".
    Under the signboard of "peace", it is committing aggression wars and armed intervention, harassing the world peace order and inflicting untold misfortune and disaster on the people.
    Under the pretext of "war on terrorism" it has committed aggression wars against weak countries, typically Iraq and Afghanistan. Wherever the misanthropic U.S. forces set their boots there were a number of casualties and disputes between religious sects and tribes, throwing citizens into uneasiness and horror.
    The "war on terrorism" that has lasted more than a decade has thrown the whole Mid-east into an evil cycle of terrorism and retaliation.
    The military and political antagonism is getting serious among countries in the regions which the U.S. dark tentacles have reached, notably Ukraine which turned into the theatre of conflict and stand-off following its disintegration.
    The U.S. moves to dominate the world find their vivid manifestation on the Korean Peninsula.
    Calling the Asia policy a key in its foreign policy in the 21st century and the Korean Peninsula a focus in it, the U.S. has persisted in its moves to stifle the DPRK.
    Finding fault with the just measure for self-defence taken by the DPRK to cope with the aggression threats as "provocation and threats", the U.S. has massively beefed up nuclear strike means around the Korean Peninsula, straining the situation in a planned and deliberate way.
    Staging Key Resolve, Foal Eagle and Ulji Freedom Guardian joint military exercises every year, the U.S. described them as drills for "defense" and the ones for "safeguarding" south Korea.
    The U.S. is the chieftain escalating tension and chief culprit harassing peace as it flatly declined the DPRK's sincere proposals for replacing the Armistice Agreement with a peace treaty and has brought the dark clouds of a war to hang over the peninsula through ceaseless joint military drills.
    Due to the U.S. the world is being inveigled into the whirlwind of war and confusion reminiscent of the world wars in the last century and the hope of the peace-loving people to see peace and stability in the 21st century has not yet come true.
    All the countries of the world loving peace have to see through the criminal nature of the U.S. and intensify the struggle to foil it. -0-
