Actualité - Apology and Compensation from US Demanded

Franc-Parler publie une dépêche de Korean Central News Agency rapportant que des excuses et des compensations sont demandées par le gouvernement de la République Populaire et Démocratique de Corée au gouvernement des États-Unis pour des massacres et crimes commis contre le peuple coréen durant la guerre impérialiste de Corée.

(KCNA) - A spokesman for the North Headquarters of the Nationwide Special Committee for Probing the Truth behind the GIs' Massacres issued a statement Saturday in connection with the recent disclosure of a letter written by the U.S. ambassador in Seoul during the last Korean war, which sparked off a great sensation at home and abroad.

The letter contained the fact that the U.S. directly ordered GIs to kill civilians during the war. The statement said:

The U.S. is obliged to stand trial for its organized massacres of Koreans. But it is trying to evade its responsibility even today when its crimes were brought to light. It is working hard to provoke another war of aggression against the DPRK to reduce the Korean Peninsula to a battle-field of a nuclear war and exterminate the Korean nation.

This is an open insult and intolerable challenge to the Korean nation who has not yet vented their pent-up spite on the U.S. imperialist man-slaughters.

All Koreans should turn out in a just struggle to make the U.S. pay for the misfortune, disaster and sacrifice inflicted upon their fellow countrymen with the dignity and honor of the nation.

The south Koreans from all walks of life should wage a vigorous anti-U.S. struggle to get the U.S. to apologize and compensate thousand-fold for its crimes and to withdraw the U.S. imperialist aggression troops, root cause of misfortune and pain and war, from south Korea.

They should also wage a staunch struggle to ostracize the pro-American "Grand National Party" which is following the U.S. to bring war and destruction to the Korean nation.
