Stronger National Unity Called for

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

   Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- The Korean nation should put further spurs to the struggle to strengthen the great national unity under the uplifted banner of "By our nation itself" in order to more dynamically push forward the cause of national reunification on the basis of the present stirring reality and elated enthusiasm. Rodong Sinmun Thursday says this in a signed article. It goes on: The issue of Korea's reunification is, in essence, the issue of rejoining the blood ties of the Korean nation divided into the north and the south and achieving the national unity. This naturally requires great national unity.
    No force on earth can keep the Korean nation permanently divided into two as it has been solidly united throughout its ancient history since its appearance. The reunion of the Korean nation as a homogeneous one is an inevitable trend of the national history and the law of national development for the homogenous Korean nation to become one. It is the invariable stand and consistent policy of the Workers' Party of Korea to achieve the independent and peaceful reunification of Korea through the great national unity.
    The line and policy of the WPK for great national unity are a brilliant inheritance and embodiment of President Kim Il Sung's idea of great national unity. The WPK has fully embodied and successfully carried forward the Juche-oriented idea of great national unity for the victory of which the President worked heart and soul all his life. This consistent line and policy of the WPK for great national unity deeply moved all the fellow countrymen and thus brought about such great national events of historic significance as providing the historic Pyongyang summit and giving birth to the June 15 era of reunification.
    The great national unity at present should be achieved in the idea of "By our nation itself" under the banner of the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration. The June 15 joint declaration is a declaration for national independence and great national unity as it embodies the idea of "By our nation itself". Thanks to the June 15 joint declaration, a landmark of national reunification in the 21st century, the Korean nation has been able to more vigorously promote the cause of great national unity. All Koreans in the north and the south and overseas should wage a vigorous patriotic struggle for great national unity to accomplish the cause of national reunification, the greatest desire of the Korean nation, as early as possible through their concerted efforts as required by the stirring realty in the June 15 era of reunification.
