The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Sunday denied Japanese saying of DPRK-Iran joint test of detonating devices for nuclear bombs and criticized the Japanese newspaper's practice of telling sheer lies to speak for the United States.

It was reported that Japanese ultra-right conservative forces Sankei Shimbun said in a newspaper of Japan that a six-member Iranian technical delegation comprising physicists and computer experts entered the DPRK in
May expecting to conduct a joint test of detonating devices for nuclear bombs with DPRK, involving the examination of neutron by using nuclear facilities in the DPRK for six months starting from July.

"There had been no deal in the field of nuclear technology between the DPRK and Iran and no delegation on such mission came here, either," said the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), adding that "it was nothing but a cynical ploy to put pressure upon the DPRK, taking advantage of the US moves to charge the DPRK with the nuclear proliferation."

The report said that some Japanese newspaper "hasn't dropped its bad habit of seeking its own interests by sowing seeds of dissension among other countries and nations."

"The Japanese society and media need to be cautious about this practice of telling sheer lies to speak for the US. though it professes to be an influential paper in Japan," said the KCNA.
