Pyongyang, June 10 (KCNA) -- The headquarters of the Movement for the Promotion of Anti-U.S and Anti-War Actions and the Earlier Conclusion of a Non-Aggression Treaty Between North Korea and the U.S. reportedly called a press conference in Seoul on June 3. At the conference it declared the start of activities of the sit-in strike group and the visiting group of youth and students for peace against the U.S. and war as part of the preparations for holding a memorial service on the occasion of the first anniversary of the June 13 incident and a grand festival for national reunification on June 15.
At the conference Yun Han Thak, co-chairman of the headquarters, said that the only way for the Korean nation to survive is to protect independence and peace through a nationwide anti-U.S. struggle and national cooperation now that the U.S. moves for a preemptive nuclear attack on the north are getting more undisguised.
At the conference Hong Sok Yong, head of the sit-in strike group who is co-chairman of the headquarters, released an appeal titled "Let us vent grudge of Hyo Sun and Mi Son through June 13-15 nationwide resistance for peace against the U.S. and war."
Anti-U.S and anti-war struggle no longer presents itself as an issue related to ideology but an urgent issue concerning the existence of the Korean nation, the appeal noted, calling for holding high the banner of anti-U.S. and anti-war struggle for peace to bring peace and security to this land.
Hwang Son, head of the visiting group of youth and students, read out "message to people."
At the conference the heads of the groups answered questions raised by journalists.
It was said that the visiting group of youth and students would depart from Chungbuk National University in Chongju on June 4 for Seoul through Iksan, Kwangju, Pusan, Taejon, Chunchon and Suwon to participate in the memorial service and grand festival to be held in Seoul on June 13.
