National Cooperation Called for

KCNA

    Pyongyang, September 17 (KCNA) -- It is an unshakable will of the Korean nation to implement the historic June 15 joint declaration through national cooperation and achieve independent reunification at an early date, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. It goes on:
    The division of Korea is a very abnormal phenomenon in view of the interests of the Korean nation and historical development. The Korean nation is a homogeneous nation that has lived in one territory for thousands of years, developing its own culture with one and the same language.
    National reunification is an issue of the Korean nation itself and an issue pertaining to its sovereignty.
    It is quite natural that the cause of national reunification is the Korean nation's cause of independence as it should be achieved by the Koreans themselves in a responsible manner in line with their independent will and desire.
    Leader Kim Jong Il's idea, leadership and noble virtue serve as basic factors of firmly guaranteeing the successful accomplishment of the cause of national reunification.
    There arrived a new historical era of independent national reunification for the first time in the over half-a-century-long history of national division and unprecedentedly signal successes are being made in the north-south relations and the movement for reunification. All this is a shining fruition of Kim Jong Il's best idea, leadership and virtue.
    Inexhaustible is the united strength of the Korean nation. No force on earth can arrest the struggle of the Korean nation advancing to achieve one and the same goal in close unity.
    All the Koreans are opposing outsiders, flunkeyists and traitors and aspiring after reconciliation and unity of the nation and its independent reunification. It is the fixed will of all Koreans to implement the historic joint declaration through national cooperation and realize independent reunification at an early date.
