	DPRK
		Face-to-face negotiations between the United States and the DPRK on an equal basis is the fairest way to resolve the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula, the Korean Central News Agency reported on January 29th, 2003.
		A spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry issued a statement on October 2nd, 2003 as regards a rumor afloat in the international arena that the nuclear facility in Nyongbyon stopped its operation and the six-way talks on the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S. will resume in October or November.
		On June 14th, 2004 the DPRK reiterated that it is necessary to settle issues with the United States through a one-to-one agreement under the principle of simultaneous actions.

	Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)
		The DPRK adopted Marxism-Leninism as its ruling philosophy when it proclaimed its establishment in 1948, but in a Constitutional revision in 1972, supplemented it with the juche ideology, or national self-reliance.
		According to the DPRK Constitution, juche is "a revolutionary ideology with a people-centred view of the world that aims to realise the independence of the masses, the guiding principle of its actions".
		Juche consists of two parts: the philosophical theory that claims the masses are the masters of history and the revolution, and the principle that the masses need the guidance of a leader (Kim Il-Sung and his son, Kim Jong-Il) to fulfil their destiny.

	CNN.com - TRANSCRIPT: North Korean statement - February 22, 2002
		The facts prove that his description of the DPRK as a member of 'axis of evil' came not from such issues as weapons or 'relationship with terrorism' but, in essence, from his personified denial to the supreme headquarters and political system of the DPRK, as estimated by the world public.
		The DPRK's political system is the man-centered socialist system of its own style which its people chose themselves and value as their life and soul.
		Bush's outbursts against the DPRK system are an insult to the national feelings of the Korean people based on its system and little short of declaring denial of dialogue with the DPRK.

	Spokesman for DPRK Foreign Ministry on Six-Party Talks
		The second phase of the fourth six-party talks on the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S. that opened in Beijing on Sept. 13, drawing the attention of the international community, closed on Sept. 19.
		The joint statement reflects our consistent stand on the settlement of the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S. and, at the same time, the commitments of the U.S. and south Korea responsible for denuclearizing the whole of the peninsula.
		What is most essential is, therefore, for the U.S. to provide LWRs to the DPRK as early as possible as evidence proving the former's substantial recognition of the latter's nuclear activity for a peaceful purpose.

	CNS DPRK Report No. 15 (November-December 1998)
		Russian experts believe that conservative forces in Washington are not happy with the current "soft" line towards the DPRK and are using the current construction in an attempt to discredit this line with "empty accusations" against Pyongyang.
		Pyongyang, according to DPRK officials, is prepared to be branded "a conservative force," but it will never change its views on the construction of a self-reliant economy.
		DPRK officials admit that North Korea is experiencing "serious difficulties" in its economic development.

		It also answered the DPRK's sincere proposal for the conclusion of the DPRK-US non-aggression treaty and its patient efforts for negotiations with such threats as "blockade" and "military punishment" and with such an arrogant attitude as blustering that it may talk but negotiations are impossible.
		It was due to such nuclear war moves of the US against the DPRK and the partiality of the IAEA that the DPRK was compelled to declare its withdrawal from the NPT in March 1993 when a touch-and-go situation was created on the Korean Peninsula.
		Secondly, it declares that the DPRK withdrawing from the NPT is totally free from the binding force of the safeguards accord with the IAEA under its Article 3.

	ANDONGKIM.COM - North Korea's statement in full
		As we have clarified more than once, we justly urged the US to renounce its hostile policy toward the DPRK whose aim was to seek the latter's "regime change" and switch its policy to that of peaceful co-existence between the two countries.
		The DPRK has clarified its stand that it would not pursue anti-Americanism and treat the US as a friendly nation if it neither slanders the political system in the DPRK nor interferes in its internal affairs.
		We have wanted the six-party talks but we are compelled to suspend our participation in the talks for an indefinite period till we have recognized that there is justification for us to attend the talks and there are ample conditions and atmosphere to expect positive results from the talks.

		Under the Framework, the DPRK is not required to come into full compliance with its IAEA safeguards agreement until a significant portion of the first LWR is completed.

		The DPRK soldier said that the Americans claimed this wall did not exist but there it is; look through the binoculars, which we dutifully did.
		In the DPRK the actual axe, the telegraph pole, torture instruments, saws, nails driven into heads, etc from various incidents are displayed.
		It is a pipe-dream being peddled to the DPRK masses.

		Tourism in the DPRK includes inspection of monumental edifices and historical and cultural relics and remains in Pyongyang and ecological tourism aimed at promoting health and training bodies while resting and vacationing at beautiful and attractive scenic spots.
		The army and people of the DPRK will adopt our own countermeasure against those who are trying to bring the Korean people to their knees by force of arms to have them in their clutches and will mercilessly wipe out those who pounce upon the DPRK.

	DPRK - Pakistan Ghauri Missile Cooperation
		During March 1996, the DPRK cargo ship Chonsung was detained by Taiwanese authorities for improperly declaring 15 tonnes (200 barrels) of ammonia perchlorate (a key component in solid rocket fuels) which was being shipped to Pakistan's Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO).
		Pakistan has provided the DPRK with access to western technology and systems which it could not easily obtain and has served as a conduit for covert acquisition programs.
		It is likely that the DPRK's No-dong and Taep'o-dong programs have also benefitted from access to various PRC technologies (e.g., guidance systems, etc.) that had previously been unavailable to it and from the data obtained from the recent Ghauri test launch (the Ghauri flew further then any previously tested DPRK missile).

	DPRK on satellite launch and missile development (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The hostile forces around the Korean peninsula, falsely describing the DPRK's launch of a satellite in August last year as a missile launch, claim that the DPRK is about to launch another long-range missile and cry for what they call "countermeasures" in an offensive attempt to increase pressure upon the DPRK.
		This campaign against the DPRK stems from the sinister political aim of tarnishing the image of the peace-loving DPRK in the international arena and isolating it by global pressure on it.
		Such being the case, the forces hostile to the DPRK are left with no justification to fault the DPRK for its satellite launchings.

		The United States confronts several contingencies in the next weeks and months: that the DPRK deepens its nuclear opacity, declares itself a nuclear state (and maybe tests a weapon or two), or shifts back to sustained ambiguity as to its weapons capacities and intentions.
		Our goal is that the DPRK Briefing Book becomes your reference of choice on the security dilemmas posed by North Korea and its relations with the United States.
		The completed DPRK Briefing Book will cover approximately two-dozen "Policy Areas," each containing issue briefs, critical analyses from diverse perspectives, and key reference materials, some of which are available as PDFs.

		Military spending is estimated at 20%-25% of GNP, which would mean that the DPRK spends the largest proportion of its GNP on its military in the world.
		Roughly 20% of North Korean men between the ages of 17 and 54 serve in the regular armed forces.
		As a result, DPRK forces are thought to have a substantial numerical advantage over the South (as high as 3 to 1) in several key categories of offensive weapons like tanks, long-range artillery, and Armoured personnel carriers.

		The DPRK has already solemnly declared that it would regard any sanctions and blockade against the DPRK as a proclamation of a war.
		The present situation where the U.S. hostile policy towards the DPRK has reached a dangerous phase proves the justice of the measures taken by it to steadily bolster all the means for self-defence including the nuclear deterrent force.

	Friends of Liberty - Full Statement of N.K.-Withdrawal from Non-Proliferation Treaty
		After the appearance of the Bush administration, the United States listed the DPRK as part of an "axis of evil," adopting it as a national policy to oppose its system, and singling it out as a target for a preemptive nuclear attack, openly declaring a nuclear war.
		It also answered the DPRK's sincere proposal for the conclusion of the DPRK-U.S. nonaggression Treaty and its patient efforts for negotiations with such threats as "blockade" and "military punishment" and with such an arrogant attitude as blustering that it may talk but negotiations are impossible.
		If the U.S. drops its hostile policy to stifle the DPRK and stops its nuclear threat to the DPRK, the DPRK may prove through a separate verification between the DPRK and the U.S. that it is not making any nuclear weapons.

	North Korea -- U.S. Statement
		All elements of the DPRK’s past and present nuclear programs — plutonium and uranium — and all nuclear weapons will be comprehensively declared and completely, verifiably and irreversibly eliminated, and will not be reconstituted in the future.
		According to these principles, the DPRK will return, at an early date, to the NPT and come into full compliance with IAEA safeguards, including by taking all steps that may be deemed necessary to verify the correctness and completeness of the DPRK’s declarations of nuclear materials and activities.
		Thus, the DPRK’s statement concerning its "right" to the peaceful uses of nuclear energy should be premised upon the completion of verification of the DPRK’s elimination of all nuclear weapons and existing nuclear programs and full compliance with the NPT and IAEA safeguards.
