Meeting convened at lO~O hours , i' r '

KPA!CPV: I

On the morning of April 6, 1961, a rubber boat carrying

five armed persons of yqur side entered and were sailing

about the waters of the Han River Estuary, and at about 0640

hours our time on the same day intruded into the waters under

the control of our side about 50 meters from the spot at 37

degrees 47 minutes 15 seconds North, 126 degrees 37 minutes

00 seconds East on the shore of our side.

Our personnel then on guard at the guard post on the

bank of our side gave warnings several times to the boat

from your side which was illegally approaching the shore of

our Side, demanding its prompt departure from the waters

under the control of our side.

Instead of complying with the warning signal from our'

side, ho~ver, the vessel from your side had not only drawn

closer to the shore of our side, but all of a sudden opened

provooative firing on the guard post of our side.

Havi~ been subjected to a surprise attack by your ..~

armed gang, our personnel had no alternative but to take a

measure of self-defense.

This fiendish attack by your side constitutes not only

a flagrant violation of the Preamble, faragraphs 12 and 17

of the Armistice Agreement as well as of the Q.UOTE Rules for

Civil Shipping in the Han River Estuary and Related Matters,

Sec/232

-=------~~~~~~~~

KPA/CPV: (CONTD)I

UNQUOTE but a very dangerous action which might cause serious

dispute undermining the basis of Korean armistice.

I have been direoted to lodge a vigorous protest with

your side against the provocative hostility it has committed

by dispatching its armed gang illegally to intrude into the

waters in the Han River Estuary.

At the same time, I demand energetically that your side

severely punish in accordance with the terms of the Armistice

Agreement the chief agents who arranged the recent military

provocation and all of your personnel involved in the crimi

nal action and that your side take thorough-going measures

to cease such hostile acts in the future.

UNC:..,..........

In keeping with the letter and spirit of the Armistice

Agreement, your charge of a naval violation will be

investigated.

Ip'A/CPV:

I demand that your side punish the criminals who have

committed the outrageous provocation against our side and

that your side take thorough steps to prevent a recurrence

of similar actions in the future.

I have a statement to make on another subject.

In disregard of our repetitive protests and warnings,

your side again dispatched at approximately 0935 hours our

time on March 21, 1961, its submarine-chaser number 70, to

intrude into the sea in the vicinity of 38 degrees 40 minutes

North, 128 degrees 26 minutes East in the coastal waters of

our side in order to conduct reconnaissance.

It is a flagrant violation of Paragraph 15 of the

Armistice Agreement stipulating that the opposing naval

forces QUOTE shall respect the waters contiguous to the

Demilitarized Zone and to the land area of Korea under the

military control of the opposing side, and shall not engage

Sec/232 2

KPA/CPV: (CONTD),

in blockade of any kinq of Korea UNQUOTE for your side to

have dispatched its naval vessel into the coastal waters of

our side.

This criminal act of your side is a very dangerous

action whioh may cause serious consequences and it should

be scathingly condemned.

At the order of the Senior Member of our side, I lodge

a str~ng protest with your side against the serious vio

lation of the Armistioe Agreement that it has infiltrated

its naval vessel again recently into the coastal waters of

our side.

At the same time, I demand that your side punish

severely unqer Sub-paragraph 13e of the Armistice Agreement

all Of your personnel involved in the recent criminal action,

and that it take thorough~going steps to desist from such

violation of the Armistice Agreement as to continue to

dispatch its naval vessels.

UNC: ~

Again in keeping with the letter and spirit of the

Armistioe Agreement, your charge of an alleged intrusion

will be investigated.

KPA/CPV:

Your side should conduct a responsible investigation

at the earliest date into your violation of the Armistice

Agreement brought up by our side, punish those involved in

the oriminal act, take responsible steps to prevent a

reourrence of similar provocative acts in the future, and

then report the results to the Military Armistice Commission.

I have a statement to make on violations of the Armi

stioe Agreement your side has kept committing recently in

the Demilitarized Zone.

Around 1120 hours our time on Maroh 12, 1961, one

military person of your side appearing in the vicinity of

Sec/232 3

KPA/CPV: (CONTD); ( ,

38 degrees 15 minutes 05 seconds North, 127 degrees 04

minutes 20 seconds East in your portion of the Demilitarized

Zone carried an automatic weapon.

Around 1200 hours our time on March 21, 1961, five

armed personnel of your side appearing in the vicinity of


minutes 20 seconds East in your portion of the Demilitarized

Zone, walked around there and at about 1210 hours our time,

one of them crossed the Military Demarcation Line to

intrude into our portion of the Demilitarized Zone in the

vicinity of 38 degrees 19 minutes 20 seconds North, 127

degrees 41 minutes 10 seconds East.

Around 1830 hours time on March 29, 1961, one of the

four military personnel of your side appearing in the


degrees 41 minutes 20 seconds East in your portion of the

Demilitarized Zone carried an automatic weapon.

Around 0910 hours our time on March 17, 1961, your

side exploded twc explosives in the vicinity of 38 degrees

12 minutes 34 seconds North, 127 degrees 00 minutes 22

seconds East in your portion of the Demilitarized Zone.

And also, your side detonated one explosive each around

2035 hours our time on March 18, 1961, in the vicinity of

38 degrees 01 minute 35 seconds North, 126 degrees 51

minutes 18 seconds East, around 2130 hours time on March

24, 1961 in the vicinity of 38 degrees 18 minutes 12

seconds North, 127 degrees 11 minutes 56 seconds East, and

around 0320 hours our time on March 29, 1961, in the


degrees 52 minutes 17 seconds East in your portion of the

Demilitarized zone.

These facts have irrefutably proved that your side has

illegally introduced hazards into the Demilitarized Zone,

Sec/232 4

KPA(CPV: (CONTD)I;

stockpiling and planting them there.

Your side dispatched its Civil Police to intrude into

our portion of the Demilitarized Zone, thereby violating

Paragraph 7 of the Armistice Agreement.

Your side allowed its Civil Police personnel to carry

automatic weapons, thereby violating the agreement reached

by both sides at the 4th meeting of the Military Armistice

Commission.

Your side has accumulated or planted hazards in the

Demilitarized Zone, thereby violating the relative

prOvisions of the Armistice Agreement for the control and

maintenance of the Demilitarized Zone.

I have been instructed by the Senior Member of our

side to lodge a vigorous protest with your side against

these violations of the Armistice Agreement by your side.

At the same time I demand that your side conduct

responsible investigations into these incidents, strictly

punish your personnel involved and take thorough-going

measures to prevent the recurrence of similar bostilities

in the future.

UNC:...-.-

Always in keeping with the letter and spirit of the

Armistioe Agreement the United Nations Command will conduct

an investigation into the alleged ground violations charged

by your side.

KPA/CPV:

I have noted your statement that investigations will

be made into the violations by your Side of the Armistice

Agreement.

I have a statement to make on yet another subject.

Your side has not taken any measures for compliance

with the terms of the Armistice ~greement and the Agree

ments and Understandings for the control and maintenance of

Sec/232 5

KPA/CPV: (CONTD);

the Demilitarized Zone, with the result that the same

violations have continuously occurred.

During the period from March 11, 1961 to March 31,

1961 alone, the violations of the Agreements and Under

standings between both sides by your personnel and vehicles

appearing in your portion of the Demilitarized zone without

displaying the prescribed distinctive insignia and markings

amount to 34 cases. This is entirely due to the falsity of

the investigations which were alleged to have been made by

your side in the past and to the irresponsible steps taken

by it.

I now hand you two copies each of Korean and English

versions of the list which contains detailed accounts of

the violations of the Agreements and Understandings by

your side.

I have been instructed by the Senior Member of our

side to lodge a protest against the violations of the

Agreements and Understandings your side has continuously

committed.

At the same time, I demand that your side conduct

responsible investigations into these incidents, severely

punish your pe~sonnel involved in accordanoe with the

p~ovisions of the Armistice Agreement and take thorough

measures to prevent the recurrence of similar incidents.

llliQ.:

In the past it has been a practice of your side to

make many false charges to give the impression that it is

the United Nations Command that violates the Armistice

Agreement. Whereas the truth is that the majority of the

violations are by the Communist side, and many of these

recent violations have been direoted against the free

people of south Korea. Regardless of how absurd your charges

may be, the United Nations Command has always conducted a

Sec/232 6

UNC: (CONTD)

j t

complete investigation. Therefore your so-called list will

be investigated.

New subject.

In keeping with the letter and spirit of the Armistice

Agreement the United Nations Command has conducted a

complete and thorough investigation of the alleged air

violation on 8 March 1961, charged by your side at the

229th meeting of the Secretaries.

The results of that investigation show that an air

c:raft of the United Nations Command did, inadvertently,

intrude into the air space over the territory under the

military contro~ of your side.

Appropriate action as required by the Armistice Agree

ment has been taken.

Another subject.

Our side protests a deliberate hostile act of

:reconnaissance by your side. At about 1357 hours, Korean

Standard Time, on 22 March 1961, one illegally introduced

high performance jet fighter type aircraft of your side

c:rossed the Military Demarcation Line in the vicinity of


minutes 35 seconds East at a high rate of speed and low

altitude heading in a southerly direction passing near the

town of KUMHWA of our side, proceeded south to the vicinity

of 38 degrees 01 minute 28 seconds North, 127 degrees 19

minutes 57 seconds East of our side arriving at about 1403

hours, Korean Standard Time, and circled the area three

times. It then flew off in a northwesterly direction and

recrossed the Military Demarcation Line in the vicinity of


minutes 28 seconds East at about 1409 hours, Korean Stand

ard Time. This hostile reconnaissance flight was observed

by many people in the Republic oP Korea.

Seo/232 ?

UNC: (CONTD)f

This flight was an obviously premeditated mission of

aerial reconnaissance ordered by your side to increase

tension and further the war-like atmosphere that your side

maintains.

This is a clear violation of Paragraphs 12, 16, and

17 of the ~rmistice Agreement as well as the preamble, and

Paragraphs 8, 9 and 25d. The mere fact that this high

performance aircraft is in the territory of your side,

points to your malicious violation of Paragraph 13d in

introducing your side's air forces without reporting them

to the Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission.

I demand your side investigate this violation, report

the results to our side in accordance with paragraph 25g,

and punish those responsible as specified in Paragraph 13e

of the Armistice Agreement. I further demand your side

take positive action to insure that no such violation shall

occur again in order that a peaceful atmosphere may be

reestablished in Korea~

I realize that the propaganda plan of the Communist

imperialists requires you to lie and deny all violations

eVen without any investigation. You will undoubtedly do

the same with this violation.

Your denial will reveal your complete disregard for

the truth because many persons in the free part of Korea

clearly saw this flight as they have seen other intrusions

by your aircraft during recent weeks.

KPA/CPV:

Incomparably wretched is the position in which you

are wagging your tongue as dictated by your master without

knowing what imperialism is.

It is expressly provided by the I\rmistice i\.greement

that punishment shall be dealt out to those violating the

terms of the Agreement.

Seo/232 8

KPA/CPV: ,~GONTD)

Being the offender who violated the Rules for the

Control and Maintenance of the Demilitarized Zone, there~

fore, it is improper for your side to advance any reason

or pretext in meeting this requirement of the Armistice

Agreement.

You have just used a number of absurd quibbles, but

that is a trick designed to lessen even slightly the

seriousness of its criminal acts that have been disclosed

and evade its obligation imposed by the Armistice Agreerrent.

Our side never tolerates but resolutely denounces it.

What your side has to do now is to implement the

requirements of the Armistice Agreement exactly instead of

taking such an insincere position.

It is extremely improper for you to take an attitude

of indulging in absurd sophistries while admitting the

intrusion by its military aircraft into the territorial ai~

of our side on March 8~ 1961.

PreCisely becaUse of such attitude of your side the

violations of the Armistice Agreement by the military

aircraft of your side intruding into our territorial air

to commit provocative acts have not ceased but continue to

occur.

Then, how can you allege that the provocative acts

of your side dispatching its military aircraft incessantly

to intrude into the territorial air of our side have been

oommitted QUOTE inadvertently? UNQUOTE

Such intrusions by the military aircraft of your

side have never been committed by any inadvertency, but

they are premediated and intentional hostile acts committed

by your side for the purpose of fUrther aggravating tension

in Korea and stepping up preparations for another war.

With no pretext can your side explain away its

violations of the flrmistice Agreement nor can it lighten

5ec/232 9

KPA/CPV: }CONTD)

its responsibility.

Your side should desist from talking futile nonsense

and take responsible action to prevent a recurrence of

similar hostile acts.

You have levelled preposterous charges in order to

conceal the incessant violations by your side of the

Armistice Agreement and to mislead international public

opinion.

It is generally known that our side has committed no

violation of the Armistice ngreement.

contrary to your allegation, it is precisely you, U.S.

imperialists who have illegally introduced various new type

weapons and combat materiel and that are making frantic

preparations for a new war, and that are intensifying

tenSion in Korea by incessantly infiltrating into our side

illegally introduced new vessels and military aircraft to

commit provocative hostilities.

And the whole world knows the fact that you have

mobilized large number of various weapons and tanks illegally

introduoed in order to kill mercilessly the south Korean

people who have risen up against the U.S. imperialists and

their puppets.

This is why the Korean people and the peace~loving

peoples the world over are keenly watching every move of

yours, denouncing you, the U.S. imperialists, as the

chieftain of aggression and war and the heinous enemy to

mankind.

Once again I declare that our side has always strictly

observed and still observes the Armistice ~gneement.

Your charge will be investigated by our side as

required by the Armistice Agreement.

S8c/232 10

UNC:-

The United Nations Command admits that man is not in

fallible. Occasionally, unintentional violations of the

Armistice Agreement by United Nations Command personnel may

occur. Such violations are readily admitted and the true

facts made known. This conduct by the United Nations Command

demonstrates to the world that the United Nations command is

faithful to the terms of the ~rmistice Agreement, and con

trasts with the intransigenpe of your side, which frequently

violates the ~rmistice Agreement but never admits it.

It is certainly obvious to trained military personnel

of your side that this crossing of the Military Demarcation

Line by a UN Command aircraft was an error. How can you

attempt to make so much of this when aircraft of your side

have made so many obvious intrusions recently into the air

over free Korea.

During the last month alone, the United Nations Command,

with irrefutable proof, charged your side with 4 violations

of the air space of our side, whioh your side summarily dis

missed by denying them at the very meeting that they were

charged. This hypocritical attitude of your side is counter

to the spirit of the Armistice 4greement.

Your side's recent statements at meetings of the

Military Armistice Commission and secretaries, that your

side never violates the Armistice Agreement is an outright

and obvious lie, that can never be believed by even your

own people, several of whom have participated in such

violations. Yet, your side has admitted only 2 of these

violations. The fact remains however, that your side

admitted violating the Armistice Agreement, yet now, you

claim that you did not violate the Armistice Agreement.

This inconSistency refutes more than this one statement.

It reveals the whole lying philosophy of the Communist

system Which firmly controls the press, radio and all

Sec/232 11

UNC: (CONTD);

expressions because it cannot afford to have your people

know the truth.

KPA/Cpy:., It is understandable that you are in such a position

as to have no other recourse but to behave in such a mean

manner, showing disregard of your honor and the disgrace

befalling you,

What alternative could your side have which cannot

afford any proper argument to legalize its o~m aggressive

policy but to take an insolent action casting slanders and

abuses at the other side?

The shameless act of yours has once again revealed

the villainy of the sanguinary U,8. imperialists. The

attitude you have assumed today is nothing but the most

typical expression of the desperate act of the weak.

Quite contrary to your charge, your side has dispatched

military aircraft into the air space over the territory of

the other side to carry out aerial reconniassance, infilt

rated numerous esponiage agents into the territory of the

opposing side to carry out esponiage activities, execute

firings toward the other side with machine guns and large

caliber artillery, perpetrated armed attacks against the

personnel of the other side in the Demilitarized Zone,

intruded into the coastal waters and coastal areas of the

other side to kill and abduct the peaceful inhabitants and

introduced various new type weapons and launched them while

frantically indulged in preparing another war and so on.

It is precisely your side that has thus continuously

violated and violates the Armistice Agreement since the

Armistice.

However desperate attempt you may make to reverse

right and wrong, you can by no means cover up the violat

ions by your side of the Armistice Agreement and its

8ec/232 12

KPA/CPV: (CONTD)

sinister machinations to provoke another war as mentioned

above.

It is most ~idiculous for your side which has

incessantly violated the Armistice Agreement to talk about

its QUOTE sincerity UNQUOTE towards the Agreement,

How can it be alleged to be a manifestation of

sinoerity towards the Armistice Agreement for your side to

commit violations of the Agreement almost every day?

You have attempted to describe as its sincerity

towards the Armistice Agreement the criminal act of your

side having perpetrated reconniassance in flagrant violation

of the Armistice Agreement by dispatching its military air

craft illegally to intrude into the air space over the

territory of our side. This statement of yours has served

to reveal to the whole world once more the villainous

character of you, U.S, impe~ialists who are always engrossed

in aggression and war.

As is clearly demonstrated by the action your side

has taken at this meeting, what you call your sincerity

towards the Armistice Agreement means its infringement and

disruption.

If your side has the slightest intention to be sincere

in the implementation of the Armistice Agreement, your

side should not attempt to deny the reported violations by

your side of the Armistice Agreement unconditionally, but

punish as required by the Armistice Agreement those

personnel involved in them and take thorough action to

prevent a recurrence of similar violations in the future.

UNC: ~

Your empty statements are noted.

Now, do you have any further business for this

meeting1

5ec/232 13

KPAtcPV: I

I demand that your side cease repeating such a vile

act as to attempt to excuse it$elf for its guilty actions.

Has your side any further subject to bring up for

discussion?

UNC:-In open defiance of the !,rmistice Agreement, and

while you as Secretary of one side sit there allegedly

negotiating good faltQ, your naval forces have launched a

dastardly attack on a patrol vessel of our side. This is

irrefutable proof of how your side flaunts the Armistice

Agreement and attempts to fool the world.

At abo~t 1030 hours, Korean Standard Time today,

several armed naval vessels of your side maliciously

attacked a patrol craft of our side at a position approxi

mately 10 miles south of an extension of the Demilitarized

Zone in the vicinity of 38 degrees 26 minutes North, 128

degrees 39 minutes East. This attack occurred while the

craft of our side was on a normal patrol deep in inter

national waters off the coast of the territory of the

Republic of Korea.

This act of piracy on the high ~eas is typical of

your side's campaign to maintain the tension and war

atmosphere.

I demand your side conduct a thorough investigation of

this violation of the Armistice r\.greement and severely

punish those responsible for this aggression.

KPA/CPV:

It is solely our side that has consistently and faith

fully enforced all terms of the /\rmistice Agreement in an

endeavor to safeguard the Armistice Agreement, convert the

armistice into a stable peace, and prevent the resumption

of a bloody conflict in Korea T

Sec/232 14

KPA/CPV: (CONTD).; i;

This is an ultimate conclusion fully borne out by all

the official records of the Military Armistice Commission

since it started its work.

With no tricks and calumnies can your side succeed in

defaming our side whioh has faithfully complied with the

Armistice Agreement nor can it mislead the unbiased public

opinion.

Because acoording to the information in the hands of

our side no confl~ct between your side and our side as

alleg~d by your side has occurred ••••••••

(At this point of his statement th~ KPA/CPV Assistant Secretary whispered something to the KPA/CPV Secretary and he stopped his statement and then continued with the following statement.)

I will repeat.

There is a Korean saying to the effect that a burglar

sounds a burglar's alarm, and you are behaving just in

this manner.

Do you ever believe that you can cover up by such

crafty trick and shameless fraud the true facts of the

fiendish attack made by your side?

The truth about the incident which has occurred off

the East coast today is as follows:

At about 1115 hours our time today, your naval vessels

intruded into the coastal waters of our side less than

three miles from the coast of our side and launched an

attack upon our fishing vessels in an attempt to seize

them.

Facing this critical situation, the coast guard

personnel of our side had no choice but to take a measure

of self-defense in order to deliver our fishing boats out

of the devilish grip of the aggressor.

As the facts clearly show, your side must be held

fully responsible for the incident which has occurred off

the East ooast.

Sec/232 15

KPA/CPV: (CONTD) , 4 \

Because it is exactly your side which has illegally

infiltrated its naval vessels into the coastal waters of

our side and which has made a savage attack upon the

peaceful fishing boats of our side.

It is the sovereign right for our side to take proper

measures of self~defense against the aggressors who attempt

to harm us.

Nevertheless~ you are shameless enough to attempt at

covering up the aggressive act committed by your side by

practicing such a fraud as to distort the facts and change

the scene o~ the incident.

What is more, you have discribed as a peaceful action

the brigandish aggressive a'ct of your side having illegally

infiltrated its naval vessels in flagrant violation of the

Armistice Agreement into the coastal waters of our side

and are proud of this cruel and inhuman act. This state

ment of yours has graphically testified to the fact that

the U.S. imperialists are the very chieftain of aggression

and war, and the heinous foe to the world people.

You should bear deep in mind that forever gone are

the days in history when imperialists could occupy the

territory of other countries and intrude into their

territorial waters to commit piracies.

I warn you that, if your side continues its dangerous

playing with fire in an ill-advised manner, the provocator

will be subjeot to due retalintion and be sent to where

he is destined to go owing to his crimes.

Your side must severely punish those involved in this

atrocious attack and take instantaneous measures to cease

such a play with fire immediately.

UNC: -or

You have been caught red~handed in a big lie. your

side has been exposed as a fake, a fraud and a deceiver

Sec/232 16

UNC: (CONTD)Pi

of the Korean people. Your side will never again be able

to hoodwink even your own misguided people.

Admit the error of your ways and perhaps you can

regain some of your lost composure.

I demand that you take steps to cease this aggression

immediately, and that you conduct a complete and thorough

investigation of this most serious violation of the Armistice

Agreement and punish those responsible. I further demand

that you report the results of your investigation to the

Military /\rmistice Commission as soon as possible.

KPfI./CPV:

Having seriously violated the Armistice tgreement,

your side is refusing to accept with sincerity our

reasonable oharges. This only shows more glaringly that

the incessant intrusions by the naval craft of your side

have been intentionally prearranged by your side.

However hard you may attempt by using such words as

fabrication and the like to slander and to defame our side

which has exerted itself to implement the Armistice Agree

ment strictly, it will be useless and can never help you

in covering up its criminal acts which have already been

bared in broad daylight.

Your side has dispatched its naval vessels to intrude

into the coastal waters of our side almost every day and

that several times a day since the very first days of the

New Year. It has now been all the more clearly demonstrated

that your side has pursued in these intrusions the verY aim

of making such savage attacks as have been made today.

It is precisely because of this dangerous pranks of

your side toying with fire that the tension in Korea has

been continuously aggravated and that the Korean Armistice

is being seriously menaced.

Sec/2)2 17

KPA/CPV:~CONTD)

At this hour, the entire Korean people and peace

loving peoples the world over are cursing you for the

ogrish and brigandish hostilities your side committed in

succession in the waters of the Han River Estuary and in

the coastal waters of our side off the East coast yesterday

and today respectively, and are watching your dangerous

act of playing with fire with great concern.

Our side never tolerates the aggressive act of your

side.

It is no other than your side which has to punish the

offenders and must also sUbmit a prompt report on the

result to the Military Armistice Commission.

I once again demand that your side, instead of being

engrossed in reiterating absurd sophistries which will

convince nobody, sincerely accept our just demand and admit

its oriminal acts candidly, severely punish its personnel

involved as required by the Armistice Agreement, take

responsible action to prevent the recurrence of similar

incidents in the future and report the result to the

Military Armistice Commission speedily.

UNC:...---

Your side is guilty of the naval violation charged by

our side at today's meeting. The record will reflect this,

as well as the fact that your side attempted to deny these

charges in violation of the Armistice Agreement. The whole

world sees how you continue to attack your brother Koreans.

Since you have nothing new, and our side has nothing

further, I propose a recess.

KPA/CPV:

It is extremely ridiculous for you, barefaced robbers

on land, pirates at sea, and bandits in the air to reverse

right into wrong so as to conceal your vile character.

Sec/2J2 18

KPA/CPV: (CONTD)I

It is nothing but a burglarious logic of the U,S.

imperialist aggressors to describe another nation's

territorial waters as international waters and cast slurs

upon the honorable action of our side defending our

territorial waters.

The longer you may persist in your infamous action,

the more will you make yourself 8 topic of ridicule of

the world public.

It will be very advantageous for you to wind up your

extremely silly and clumsy farce designed to deceive others

at this time when the criminal actions of your side have

been exposed to the world.

Making a desperate effort to provoke another war of

aggression against the Korean people, your side has this

time sent its naval vessels to intrude deep into the coastal

waters of our side. There is no doubt that this is closely

linked with the war policy of your Side, being a provocative

action arranged and executed by the war fanatics of the

Pentagon.

Unless such wicked and inhuman aggressive actions are

ceased~ it is impossible to eliminate the tensions in

Korea, to liquidate the source of war here and to covert

Korean armistice into stable peace.

Your side must act up to the requirement of the

Armistice ~greement.

Whatever desperate subterfuge you may resort to, you

can neither disguise the hostile acts committed by your

side nor can you evade the proper responsibility binding

upon your side.

Your side must stop its reckless provocations at once,

punish the offenders, and implement all the terms of the

Armistice Agreement thoroughly,

Sec/232 19

llli£: You have avoided your responsibilities to this

commission again. I repeat _ I demand that you investigate

this latest violation by your side which took place this

morning.

KPA/CPV:

You are trying to evade the responsibility for its

crimes.

Where are you going to hide?

There is no place for you to hide yourselves.

You are behaving in a very brazen-faced manner.

Both the prime movers who have recently planned and

organized the outrageous provocation against our side and

those who have been implimented in it should be punished.

Why are you so cowardly trying to escape your respon

sibilities for your execrable crime whereas you are match

less in committing aggressions and provocations and hatch.~

ing plots?

Those who have once committed crimes should bear the

responsibility and be punished for it, should they not?

UNC:-Why don't you stop prattling about QUOTE responsibilities

UNQUOTE and carry them out instead. Your side is charged

with a violation, the details of which are present in the

record of this meeting. According to the provisions of

the Armistice Agreement, to which you pay so much lip

service, you are required to investigate this charge.

KPA{CPV:

Desist from talking nonsense any longer.

As the facts eloquently prove, the provocator is your

side and it is also your side that is being denounced.

Your side has described our fishing vessels as naval

craft and the coastal waters of our side as international

waters 10 miles south of the extension of the Demilitarized

Zone.

Sec/232 20

KPA/CPV: (CONTD~

This only serves to prove that your side itself has

come to admit that the attack by your naval vessels

constituted a serious crime which can never be condoned.

No sophistries and desperate attempts of yours can

help you cover up the true facts of the piracy committed by

your side this morning, nor can they help you evade the

responsibility for it.

Your side must punish the provocators, take respon

sible steps to p~event a recurrence of similar incidents

in the future and report the results to the Military

Armistice Commission.

I agree to your proposal to recess.
