NKorea threatens to blast psychological war base in SKorea.
.
27/2 Tass 54
PYONGYANG, February 27 (Itar-Tass) - North Korea demanded on Sunday
that South Korea "should immediately stop the psychological war against
Pyongyang", says a notification by head of the North Korean delegation at
military talks between the North and the South, as quoted by the KCNA news
agency.
If Seoul "continues ignoring warnings by the North Korea side", it
runs, the Korean People's Army "will destroy the South Korean propaganda
base for the purpose of self-defence".
The notification also notes that the psychological war, spearheaded
against North Korea, "runs counter to the interests of the Korean nation,
seeking to open a new phase in peaceful unification of the homeland
through a dialogue and negotiations".
In 2004, the North and the South signed an agreement on mutual refusal
from propaganda. However, the South Korean authorities announced the
resumption of the psychological war, referring to North Korea's complicity
in the scuttling of the South Korean corvette Cheonan in the Yellow Sea
late last March. Pyongyang bluntly refuses this complicity. The propaganda
campaign stepped up after the artillery engagement between the North and
the South in the area of the Yeonpyeong Island on last November 23.
