West Coast Exchange, North Korea Watcher Conference, Sept. 2026

Pyongyang, August 13 (KCNA) -- In the puppet ROK, people from all walks of life are now intensifying the massive resistance to impeach the puppet Yoon Suk Yeol pushing the situation of the Korean peninsula to the extremes while zealously following the U.S. and Japan keen on nuclear confrontation racket.

An all-people rally took place in Seoul on August 10 to denounce Yoon for fostering a dangerous war while resorting to the promotion of the ROK-U.S.-Japan military alliance and the ROK-Japan military alliance.

Attending the rally were more than 10 000 members of the Confederation of Trade Unions, the Federation of Women Peasants Associations, the Progressive Federation of Students and other organizations.

Speakers charged that Yoon is taking the lead in carrying out the Indo-Pacific strategy of the U.S. and Japan to reduce the ROK into a multi-domain military operation base for hegemonic war and a proxy battlefield for a nuclear war by strengthening the ROK-U.S.-Japan military cooperation system and revitalizing the "UN Command" as a multinational war tool.

Then a resolution was read out.

It demanded the impeachment of Yoon who is bringing the danger of a nuclear war through the ROK-U.S. joint military drills and the promotion of the ROK-U.S.-Japan war alliance, in order to tide over the ruling crisis, indifferent to the life and security of the people.

Earlier, the participants in the meetings of different sectors held under the sponsorship of action organizations heard reports on the activities against the U.S., war and Yoon Suk Yeol.

Speakers noted that workers, women peasants and students have dynamically waged the anti-war struggle and the struggle for the withdrawal of U.S. forces, dissolution of the "People Power Party" and the impeachment of Yoon while going round different places for 8 days and 7 nights.

The 102nd candlelight rally and demonstration were staged in Seoul amid the growing hatred and resentment of people from all walks of life against the U.S., the mastermind of disturbing peace on the Korean peninsula and the chieftain of aggression, and its stooge Yoon Suk Yeol.

Many people including workers, peasants and university students gathered at the venue of the rally, hardening their will to impeach Yoon.

The joint representatives of the candlelight actions in different regions denounced Yoon Suk Yeol for seeking the ROK-U.S.-Japan war alliance and making desperate efforts to ignite a nuclear war in the Korean peninsula at any cost. -0-
