All Koreans Called upon to Turn out in Movement for Reunification

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

    Pyongyang, January 3 (KCNA) -- The joint editorial for this year calls on all Koreans to step up the grand march for national reunification this year in hearty response to the slogan "Let us vigorously forward the patriotic movement for independent reunification, peace against war and great national unity under the banner of 'By our nation itself!'" This appeal has met a warm response from all fellow countrymen. Rodong Sinmun today says this in a signed article.
    It goes on:
    What is most important for putting spurs to the movement for reunification is for all Koreans to fully display their patriotic will at all times. It is patriotism for the Korean nation, which has undergone the tragedy of division, to dedicate itself to a worthy struggle for peace and reunification and prosperity of the country.
    It is also an important aspect of patriotism to courageously struggle against foreign aggression and domination and protect the peace of the country and the security of the nation.
    The patriotic will of the fellow countrymen in essence represents noble thought and sentiment desirous of independence against foreign forces. It is patriotism and reunification for the fellow countrymen to turn out as one to put an end to foreign domination and interference and protect sovereignty and dignity and, at the same time, stage joint actions to frustrate the moves of foreign forces for aggression and war and defend peace and work hard to achieve positive solidarity and alliance irrespective of ideology and ideal.
    The United States is now making desperate efforts to ignite a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula.
    The fellow countrymen should, therefore, display their patriotism to the full in frustrating the U.S. imperialists' moves for a war against the DPRK and firmly defending the country, their cradle. They should pool their efforts to deal telling blows at the U.S. bent on the arrogant moves to start a war of aggression against the DPRK and drive its aggressor forces out of south Korea. This is the only way of averting a war on the Korean Peninsula, defending peace and achieving its independent reunification, the article concludes.
