KCNA

It is the unanimous will of the 70 million Koreans to protect the security and peace of the nation and advance along the road of reunification under the uplifted banner of the June 15 joint declaration, the resolution said, and went on: Firstly, we solemnly declare at home and abroad the firm will of the 70 million Koreans to achieve peace despite any ordeals.

    We will firmly unite with all the countries that love peace and work to defend peace and all the peace-loving forces of the world.
    Fourthly, we will achieve the reunification of the nation and make lasting peace settle in this land.
    Genuine peace can be achieved in Korea only through reunification.
    We will open a new charter of national reconciliation and unity and surely fling the door of reunification open by the efforts of the Korean nation, as indicated by the historic June 15 joint declaration.
