Improved inter-Korean relations called for

KCNA

    Pyongyang, June 5 (KCNA) -- All Koreans should unite as one to frustrate the moves of outsiders and anti-reunification forces, firmly preserve and implement the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration so as to put spurs to the movement for reunification and open up a new chapter of national reunification by their concerted efforts, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. The article goes on:
    The Korean nation should convert the inter-Korean relations plagued with division and confrontation into those of national cooperation.
    It is, therefore, necessary for both sides to become independent dialogue partners and discuss and solve all outstanding issues between the north and the south from an independent stand by the concerted efforts of the nation.
    In order to turn the north-south relations into the ties of national cooperation it is necessary for the Korean nation to have the viewpoint and stand that the Korean nation is a community linked with the same destiny that can survive only when it gets united as it has the same blood, language, history and culture although it has lived separated for more than half a century due to the outsiders' pressure and obstructive moves.
    The article underscores the need for the Korean nation to foil the outsiders' moves for aggression and war through national cooperation and not to allow the anti-reunification forces to seek cooperation with outsiders in order to improve the inter-Korean relations.
    The north-south relations, the ties of national cooperation, should be steadily developed in depth on the basis of the great national unity, the article concludes.
