All Koreans urged to remain true to inter Korean joint declaration

KCNA

    Pyongyang, June 17 (KCNA) -- Inter-Korean dialogues and contacts are taking place on the principle of national independence and the Koreans from all walks of life are joining their efforts and raising the same voices despite their differing ideologies under the banner of "by our nation itself". This is the real picture in the era of independence and reunification in which the nation is bound to emerge victorious thanks to the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration. Rodong Sinmun today says this in a signed article. Referring to the astonishing events and stirring realities on this land the nation has witnessed in the movement for national reunification over the last three years since the publication of the joint declaration, the article goes on:
    The more reckless the U.S. imperialists become in their moves to chill the desire of Koreans for independence and reunification and bring a nuclear holocaust to the Korean Peninsula, the stronger faith and will the Koreans will have to creditably carve out the future of the country and the nation on their own, regarding national independence as their life and soul.
    The desire to achieve reconciliation, unity and reunification by the concerted efforts of the Korean nation is running high all over the country.
    No matter how desperately the U.S. may work to start a nuclear war it cannot break the fixed will of the Koreans to achieve independence and reunification by rejoining the severed blood ties of the nation by its concerted efforts, optimistic about the victory of the era of independence and reunification.
    The joint declaration serves as a landmark of patriotism as it encourages the nation to sail to the final destination of reunification in the spirit of great national unity under the uplifted banner of independence, despite any adverse wind raised by outsiders and such snags as flunkeyism and treachery.
    The nation has yet a thorny way to go as there are many trials and difficulties in its way of national reunification.
    But no force on earth can stop the 70 million Koreans from vigorously advancing under the banner of the joint declaration.
