Organizations of Koreans in Russia issued statements in denunciation of the US for exacerbating the tension on the Korean peninsula.

The Central Association of Korean Nationals in Russia issued a statement entitled “The US must stop at once the provocative act of threatening the security environment of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea” on March 4. It said that the US nuclear carrier Carl Vinson entered Pusan Port in the ROK on March 2 and that it is the US’ invariable policy toward the DPRK to stifle it by force.

The US persists with the criminal aggressive war drills targeting the DPRK, regardless of the Korean and world people’s unanimous desire and demand for the military detente and durable peace, the statement said, stressing it should clearly know that its reckless war drills with the ROK will only hasten their own ruin.

The Social Confederation of Koreans in the Far Eastern Region of Russia, also released a statement entitled “The US’ extreme war exercises are a main factor that threatens peace and security on the Korean peninsula” on March 5. Saying that it is entirely attributable to the DPRK’s military line for self-defence and powerful war deterrent that peace has been kept in the Korean peninsula and the Asia-Pacific region up to now, the statement warned that the US had better behave properly, being well aware of its rival.
