KCNA Commentary Censures Japan's Moves for Continental Invasion

 Pyongyang, March 11 (KCNA) -- The Japanese reactionaries persist in its moves to usurp Tok Island.


Shortly ago, the chief Cabinet secretary of Japan at an interview let out bellicose remarks that Japan would resolutely defend Tok Island, again asserting that the island is "part of Japan's inviolable territory".


And he said that Japan would strengthen the correct information transmission through its embassies in different countries and overseas dispatch of domestic brains in order to secure the "international community's proper understanding" of the issue.


It is needless to say that such rubbish is a revelation of the reckless design of the militarists to launch reinvasion after making a legal justification for continental invasion by misleading the public opinion at home and abroad.


It is well known that Japan has long been in friction with its surrounding countries over "dominium". Its moves for seizing Tok Island reached the extremes in their impudent, aggressive and dangerous nature.


Recently, foreign minister and other ministers of Japan have taken the lead in hyping up its "dominium" over Tok Island. 57 pieces of misinformation about Tok Island were newly posted on its government homepage. Despite public criticism at home and abroad and health crisis caused by COVID-19, an event was held to mark "Takeshima Day" in the presence of government officials.


The chairman of the Policy Research Council of the Liberal Democratic Party, grumbling that some Japanese media use both Japanese and Korean terms "Takeshima" and "Tok Island" in their reports, said that such terms may lead to public acknowledgement that the island is not a part of the Japanese territory.


Japan seeks to openly launch continental invasion under the pretext of "retrieving its dominium over Tok Island" after highlighting the waters around it as a strife-torn area in the international arena by hyping up its "dominium" over the island.


This is clearly proved by Japan's wild ambition for territorial expansion, undisguised ambition for reinvasion, the "Self-Defence Forces" that rapidly get bigger, free from the shackles of "exclusive defence", and frequent military exercises such as those for recapturing remote islands.


Tok Island is always a part of the inalienable territory of the Korean nation.


Japan is bound to face a terrible disaster for its desperate denial of such hard historical fact recognized by international law.


Japan would be well advised to think twice about the catastrophe to be entailed by its wild ambition for usurping Tok Island. -0-
