North Korea urges US to respond to peace agreement proposal
July 19th, 2010 - 6:35 pm ICT by ANINew Delhi, July 19 (ANI): A North Korean newspaper — Rodong Sinmun — has urged the United States to sincerely respond to the peace agreement proposed by Pyongyang in a commentary published on Monday.
“The Armistice Agreement which had already been reduced to a dead paper provides the U.S. with conditions for starting a war on the peninsula any time,” said the commentary.
It also proposed that a peace treaty replace the agreement as early as possible “to establish a solid peace-keeping regime on the peninsula.”
“In order to bring the process for the denuclearization on the peninsula back on a normal track, it is necessary to pay primary attention to building confidence between the DPRK and the U.S.,” Xinhua quoted the commentary, as adding. (ANI)
