All Koreans Called upon to Take June 15 Joint Declaration as Lifeline

KCNA

    Pyongyang, January 2 (KCNA) -- All the Koreans in the north, the south and overseas should take the June 15 joint declaration as a lifeline in the new year, too and wage a dynamic movement for national independence and reunification and thus register the greatest success in the movement for national reunification, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. It is the unanimous aspiration and will of the 70 million Koreans to implement the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration and reunify the country at an early date, the article notes, and goes on:
    National reunification is an issue of our nation that should be achieved by itself in line with its independent will and requirements.
    The June 15 joint declaration indicates the way of solving the issue of national reunification peacefully and smoothly as the north and the south agreed to work for reunification, recognizing that the north side's proposal for federation for the country's reunification and the south side's proposal for a commonwealth system have similarity.
    The federal formula would make it possible to achieve national reunification smoothly without any deviation or twists and turns.
    The joint declaration projects the idea of "By our nation itself" on the basis of the superb national identity and indomitable spirit of the Korean nation, thus imbuing all Koreans with ardent patriotic fever and exceptionally increasing the might of the driving force of the nation.
    All the Koreans in the north and the south and overseas should firmly uphold and thoroughly implement the June 15 joint declaration and thus glorify the era of independent reunification in the new year, too, no matter how pronounced foreign forces get in their moves for interference and aggression and no matter how complicated the situation becomes, concludes the article.
