N. Korea: 'Nuclear War Any Moment'

Saturday, March 22, 2003

North Korea’s official news agency claimed Friday that the situation is so
tense on the Korean peninsular “that a nuclear war may break out there any
moment.”

The official communist news agency said the recent U.S.-South Korean
exercises have been timed to coincide with the U.S. invasion of Iraq, as
part
of America’s “win-win strategy, a key link in the whole chain of its
strategy
to dominate the world by holding an upper hand in strength, is being put
into
practice on the Korean Peninsula.”

On Saturday, North Korea added to its rhetoric by canceling a planned
economic meeting between the two Koreas.

"When our dialogue partner is threatening us with a dagger, we have no
option but to conclude that we must delay the talks," said Pyongyang's
communist Central Radio.

South Korea, in addition to its military exercises with the U.S.,
increased
it state of alert earlier this week fearing that North Korea might use the
U.S. invasion of Iraq to begin hostilities.
