Maintenance of National Independence Called for

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- The Korean nation is responsible for its own destiny, which should be shaped out by itself in any case. Only when the Koreans have such consciousness and resolute will, is it possible to break the U.S. nuclear stick and bring earlier the reunification of the country. Rodong Sinmun Monday says this in a signed article.
    It further says:
    If the movement for national reunification is to continue advancing to victory with vitality it is necessary to firmly maintain the principle of national independence as a lifeline and fundamental principle.
    The national independence is the fundamental principle that should be adhered to in accomplishing the cause of national reunification. The issue of national reunification should be strictly settled on the principle of national independence.
    The maintenance of national independence is most urgent in the field of the reunification movement as the dignity and sovereignty of the nation are now being violated due to the division of the country.
    For its selfish aims, the United States brought a tragedy of division and sowed discord in Korea and still enforces history of shamelessness on it. It is the intention of the United States to turn the whole of Korea into its colony and reduce all the Koreans to its slaves. The U.S. is not only the mastermind of division of Korea but also an enemy of reunification. That is why the reunification of the country is a cause of national independence, from A to Z, to put an end to the U.S. military occupation and domination over south Korea and realize national sovereignty throughout the country.
    National dignity and pride should be displayed to the full to frustrate the U.S. moves to divide the Korean nation and its ambition to dominate over Korea. This is a key to retaking the national sovereignty and achieving the reunification of the country.
    The cause of country's reunification and the national independence are inseparable from each other and the national independence is what keeps the movement for national reunification alive.
    In order to foil the U.S. moves for aggression and defend the sovereignty of the nation, all members of the nation should oppose and reject flunkeyism and dependence to foreign forces and give fuller play to the consciousness of national independence.
