    Pyongyang, December 6 (KCNA) -- An extraordinary meeting of the co-chairmen of the Presidium of the National Alliance for the Country's Reunification (Pomminryon) was held on Dec. 5 by fax among the co-chairmen in the north, the south and abroad. Discussed at the meeting were immediate tasks facing the Pomminryon organizations. There was introduced, to begin with, the joint press release made public at the working-level contact of representatives of Koreans from the north, the south and overseas held in Mt. Kumgang on Nov. 24.
    A special resolution titled "Let us make significant 2005 the year of independent reunification by upholding and carrying through the June 15 joint declaration" was adopted at the meeting.
    The resolution reviewed the brilliant successes achieved in the north, the south and overseas in the movement for national reunification in 2004.
    Stating that Pomminryon would make every possible effort to make significant 2005 the year of independent reunification and the year of the withdrawal of the U.S. forces from south Korea, it said: To this end, national cooperation should be definitely realized under the banner of the June 15 joint declaration and the anti-U.S. movement for the reunification of the country be waged on a nation-wide scale against the U.S. moves for a war.
    Saying the Songun force of the north is a force of the nation to prevent a war on the Korean Peninsula and defend the nation, the resolution called for waging a nation-wide struggle for the withdrawal of the U.S. forces, the principal criminal seeking a war on the peninsula, by pooling the Songun force of the north and the force against the U.S. and for independence in the south.
    As a practical step, we will form "the North-South Joint Measure Committee for the Withdrawal of the U.S. Forces" at an early date to launch into the struggle for making 2005 practically the year of the withdrawal of the U.S. forces and will successfully hold a national joint function marking the 5th anniversary of the publication of the joint declaration and an August 15 reunification function as grand national festivals for reunification while striving to strengthen national cooperation, the resolution declared.
    It underlined the need to make vehement efforts to have Pomminryon legalized through the abolition of the "National Security Law" and further develop the nationwide movement for reunification by realizing three-party cooperation on a high level and hold the 9th meeting of the co-chairmen of the Pomminryon Presidium with the gathering of those in the north, the south and abroad at one place next year.
