The UK Korean Friendship Association (UK KFA) issued the following statement on the 63rd anniversary of the provocation of the Korean War (Fatherland Liberation War in the DPRK) which falls on the 25th of June and the start of the month of solidarity with the Korean people against US imperialism from June 25th to July 27th (the dates being symbolic as they are the dates when the war started and finished).
The Korean war provoked entirely by the US imperialists and their south Korean puppets was a horrendous genocidal war against the Korean people . The aim of the US was not "freedom" and "democracy" but conquest and enslavement. The aim of the US was to seize the northern half of Korea in order to have a strategic bridgehead , so that they could have their troops on the borders of China and the Soviet Union . In fact General Douglas MacArthur wanted to turn the Korean war into a war against China. It was part and parcel of the "rollback " strategy of US imperialism and the so called "Truman doctrine."
The fact that John Foster Dullles, US secretary of state , visited south Korea on the 19th of June 1950 only a week before the war started proves beyond all reasonable doubt the role of the US in provoking the war. Foster-Dulles visit involved tours of front-line areas .
The US killed 1,200,000 million civilians in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea . During the war the US indiscriminately bombed the DPRK as well as carrying out deliberate and premeditated massacres of civilians.
UK KFA has seen the Sinchon Ri Museum which is an education centre but also a memorial to the 35,000 men , women and children killed by the US during their occupation of Sinchon Ri . The US also used napalm in Korea but also biological weapons that are outlawed under international law.
The most fitting tribute to those who died in the Korean Waris to campaign for the withdrawal of US troops from the south of Korea and for the reunification of Korea.
UK KFA joins with Korean Friendship organisations throughout the world and progressive people everywhere in calling for the total and unconditional withdrawal of US troops from the south of Korea . The US must end its anti DPRK policy . The US appears to be intensifying this with new tougher sanctions and also military exercises against the DPRK which we denounce. We will be picketing the US embassy on the 25th of June to in order to campaign against
the US presence in south Korea and the US sanctions and war moves against the DPRK.
Finally it is time for the Korean Armistice Agreement now nearly 60 years ago to be replaced by a proper and permanent peace treaty. We strongly support the proposal of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK for talks with the US .
