Rodong Sinmun Calls for Rejecting Foreign Interference

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- If the U.S. is allowed to interfere in the issue of national reunification and internal affairs of the Korean nation any longer and, moreover, its anti-reunification moves are overlooked, the inter-Korean ties can never get rid of difficulties and trials and the cause of national reunification can never escape the crisis of setback, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. It continues:
    Last year the atmosphere of reconciliation and cooperation steadily mounted in the north and the south of Korea and all the Koreans worked hard together for independent reunification, but the inter-Korean relations remained at a stalemate quite contrary to their expectation. It was attributable to the U.S. vicious obstructions. Its criminal moves to bar the inter-Korean ties from improving and chill the atmosphere of peace and reunification on the Korean Peninsula reached their height last year.
    This is evidenced by the fact that the U.S. deliberately meddled in the issue of the inter-Korean ties and carried matters with a high hand, acting a "gendarme."
    Last year the U.S. intervened in the internal affairs of south Korea in a bid to orchestrate grave political events. This was aimed to block progress and reforms in south Korea and stem the trend of warming up the inter-Korean ties.
    The circumstances under which the movement for national reunification was waged last year once again taught a serious lesson that if the U.S. interference is not terminated, it is quite impossible to achieve the reconciliation between compatriots and their cause of reunification.
    This year the Korean nation should reject the aggressor foreign forces opposed to Korea's reunification and get united as one in the struggle for harmony and reunification under the uplifted slogan of three forms of cooperation--cooperation for national independence, cooperation for peace against war and cooperation for reunification and patriotism--put up by the joint New Year editorial.
