Pyongyang,
October 1 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK issued the
following press statement on Sunday:
There
was a grave terrorist attack on the Cuban embassy in the United States on
September 24.
We
strongly denounce the recent terrorist act as a wanton violation of
international law and an undisguised infringement on the sovereignty of Cuba.
Lurking
behind the incident is the sinister intention of the anti-Cuban forces in the
U.S. to tarnish the international image of Cuba, with the final aim of
overthrowing the social system of socialist Cuba.
Though
the truth behind a shooting spree case against the Cuban embassy in the U.S.
three years ago has not been probed yet, there took place again another case of
throwing gasoline bottle bomb to threaten the lives of diplomats. This goes to
prove that the above-said incidents were committed evidently at the tacit
connivance of the U.S. administration.
The
U.S. is keen only on putting those countries incurring its displeasure on the
list of sponsors of terrorism, purposely turning away from the obligations of
the receiving state stipulated in the Vienna Convention on diplomatic
relations. This can never be justified in any case.
The
U.S. arrogant and despicable anti-Cuban moves are facing the strong protest and
denunciation by the international community aspiring after the respect for
sovereignty of an independent and sovereign state and justice.
If
the U.S., always clamoring for "observance of international law" and
boasting of "law-governed state", has the slightest will to defend
its "honor", it should, though belatedly, acknowledge the blame for
not only the recent incident but also all the past terrorist cases and probe
their truth to show its sincerity.
We
have consistently and fully supported the just cause of the Cuban party,
government and people for defending the sovereignty and socialism and will
always stand together with the Cuban people in the struggle against all sorts
of terrorism.
