Rodong Sinmun on Idea of "By Our Nation Itself"

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

    Pyongyang, September 28 (KCNA) -- Anti-north rackets reminding of the era of confrontation between the north and the south in "cooperation" with the foreign forces are being kicked up in south Korea, laying obstacles in the way of developing the inter-Korean relations and keeping an atmosphere of national reunification. In this regard Rodong Sinmun carries a signed article today. Military "cooperation" with the foreign forces is harmful to the Korean nation and unpardonable in the June 15 era of reunification, the article says, and goes on: The idea of "By our nation itself" laid down in the historic June 15 joint declaration is the idea of national independence from A to Z. The idea calls for thoroughly rejecting "cooperation" with the aggressive foreign forces in war and paving the way for peace and reunification through national cooperation.
    However, the south Korean authorities are talking about "implementation" of the joint declaration and "national cooperation" in one hand and showing such a double-dealing attitude as dancing to the tune of war of the foreign forces in the other. This is a perfidy to the idea of "By our nation itself".
    The idea is the basic guidelines to defend peace of the country and develop the inter-Korean relations on the principle of national independence. Only when the north and the south remain loyal to the idea is it possible to defend peace, promote reconciliation and cooperation and step up the cause of reunification against the war moves of the foreign forces.
    "Cooperation" with the foreign forces and war rackets in league with them, going astray from the idea, are a dangerous adventure which may drive the inter-Korean relations to a crisis again.
    Steadfast is the will of the Korean nation to achieve national unity and the peace and independent reunification of the country by its concerted efforts under the uplifted banner of the June 15 joint declaration. No force can arrest the dynamic advance of the Korean nation toward the reunification of the country in the idea of "By our nation itself".
