A spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland Sunday gave the following answer to a question put by KCNA as regards the passage of a "motion on impeachment against the president" through the "National Assembly" of south Korea:
This is not merely an internal affair of south Korea. It is a political rebellion staged by a handful of political quacks quelling the mindset of tens of millions of south Korean people.
This pushed the political situation in south Korea to an unpredictable phase and brought an unbearable insult and disgrace to the south Korean people. A plot was illegally and unreasonably hatched for the "motion on impeachment" and it was railroaded through the NA session in just 20 minutes with riot police involved. That was a coup in the parliament unprecedented in the history of world politics, which betrays the backwardness of south Korean politics.
It was none other than the United States that sparked such disturbing development. The U.S. had hatched such plot for "impeachment" in south Korea since October last year.
Workers, peasants, youth and students, intellectuals, religionists and people of all other standings in south Korea should condemn the illegal political gangsterism of the U.S., the GNP and other conservative opposition parties, its henchmen, and take a proper option to pave the way for new politics, new system and new life through their struggle and make a bold decision.
We will follow the present situation in south Korea.
