Pyongyang, May 23 (KCNA) -- A spokesperson of
the Korea Association for Human Rights Studies issued the following press
statement on May 23:
A plenary meeting was convened at the venue
of the UN General Assembly on May 20 to discuss the "human rights
issue" of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
At the meeting, the U.S., the ROK and other
hostile forces committed a heinous politically-motivated provocation of
viciously picking on the human rights situation in the DPRK by putting forward
the quasi "human rights" plot-breeding organizations.
The Korean Association for Human Rights
Studies bitterly denounces and rejects the plot to convene the meeting as a
wanton contravention of the UN Charter and international law which stipulate
respect for sovereignty and non-interference in internal affairs and a grave
violation of the dignity and sovereignty of our state.
More than 80 years have passed since the UN
was founded and 70-odd years have passed since the World Declaration of Human
Rights was adopted. But the UN has never been openly used as an arena for
confrontation, plot and fabrication by the specific forces seeking to overthrow
the system of a sovereign state as today.
The fact that the meeting was convened on the
basis of all sorts of lies and fabricated data cooked up by the "human
rights" servants backed by the hostile states including the U.S. and the
ROK to earn a dirty living fully proves its illegal and conspiratorial nature.
No matter how desperately the hostile forces
may try to confuse right and wrong by mobilizing even a handful of human scum,
the fair international community's appreciation can never be changed and the
Korean people's confidence in the socialist system guaranteeing genuine human
rights can never be undermined.
Is there any country in the world like the
DPRK to legalize and make it rule to enforce policies for the well-being of the
people and children including free medical care, free supply of houses, free
education, school uniforms, school things and dairy products?
It is only the DPRK where the elderly,
orphans and disabled people, who are called delicate strata of society, are
living without any worries under the care of the state, and many flood victims
who have lost their homes come to the capital city to receive special
treatment.
It is the DPRK where the standard of human
rights is enforced which is far exceeding the standards of the World
Declaration of Human Rights and international human rights conventions
specifying the rights to existence, education, development and other universal
rights.
The international norms and order, which were
enacted and have been desired for the just cause of respecting the sovereignty
of each nation and defending global peace and security, are completely being
collapsed due to the high-handed and reckless acts of the hegemonic forces.
This present reality once again makes us keep in mind the immutable truth that
the protection of the sovereignty and dignity of a state and the peace and
wellbeing of the people are guaranteed only by the powerful strength capable of
defending itself.
The malicious acts of some countries which
blindly followed the hostile forces to slander the most popular and just social
system of the DPRK will be thoroughly taken into account.
The protection of human rights precisely
means the protection of the sovereign rights.
The DPRK will never overlook the heinous
"human rights" smear campaign of the hostile forces totally denying
the ideology and system of the dignified DPRK and inciting the overthrow of the
state, but further put spurs to the exercise of its sovereign rights for
defending the dignity of the state and the people and protecting the genuine
human rights.
