Great National Unity Called for

KCNA

    Pyongyang, November 27 (KCNA) -- All Koreans, whether they are in the north and the south and overseas, should unite close under the banner of patriotism, the banner of national reunification, irrespective of ideology, religious belief, political view, class and social strata and intensify the patriotic struggle for reunification, keenly aware that the great unity of the Korean nation is the lifeline for national reunification, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. It goes on:
    As the issue of national reunification is the one of achieving the permanent reunion of the divided Korean nation and maintaining its homogeneity, national reunification presupposes the great unity of the Korean nation and this unity would precisely mean the reunification of the country.
    It is none other than the Koreans who have undergone sufferings and pain due to the division of the country and who will enjoy happiness in the reunified country.
    It is, therefore, a decisive guarantee for the independent and peaceful reunification of the country for all the Korean people in the north and the south and overseas to fulfill their responsibility and role as a driving force for national reunification.
    What is essential for achieving national reunification is to achieve the great unity of the Korean nation.
    Despite the persistent challenges of the forces at home and abroad to the movement for reunification in the new century including their moves to stifle the DPRK by force of arms and incite the north-south confrontation, the Korean nation's cause of reunification is making progress and bringing about signal successes. This is because the Korean nation is powerfully driving the engine of reunification by its concerted efforts with the pride and self-confidence of having greeted the era of independent reunification ushered in by the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration. The lesson teaches us that the Korean nation is a main force for accomplishing the cause of national reunification and the great national unity is the best and if the whole nation unites close in the struggle with one mind and will in the spirit of "By our nation itself", it can weather out any difficulties and ordeals to accomplish the cause of national reunification.
