Rodong Sinmun Calls for Pushing Forward Three-point Patriotic Movement

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

   Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today in a by-lined article calls on all the Koreans in the north and the south and overseas to conduct a vigorous three-point patriotic movement for independent reunification, peace against war and great national unity in hearty response to the joint New Year editorial issued by the newspapers of the Party, the army and the youth league. It says:
    The three-point patriotic movement set forth in the joint editorial serves as the banner of struggle which helps encourage the burning patriotic zeal of all the Koreans and display it in practice.
    The patriotic movement for independent reunification is a nation-wide patriotic movement to accomplish the cause of national reunification by giving full play to the common idea and feelings of the Korean nation which values its dignity and sovereignty most.
    Only when all the Koreans put the dignity and interests of the nation above anything else to settle all the problems arising in accomplishing the cause of national reunification as required by the idea of "By our nation itself" with the firm consciousness of national independence and keep the nation-first spirit prevalent in all their residential quarters as pointed out in the joint editorial, will the hot wind of independent reunification sweep across the Korean Peninsula.
    The patriotic movement for peace against war is the struggle to give full play to the staunch stamina of the Korean nation rejecting aggression and domination to defend the peace of the country and the security of the nation. The U.S. reckless policy of aggression on Korea is sparking off the burning hatred of all the Koreans for the U.S. The patriotic movement for peace against war is mighty in getting all the Koreans to focus the spearhead of their struggle on the U.S., the root cause of aggression and war, with their will to defend the nation and peace.
    The patriotic movement for great national unity is a movement for pooling all the Koreans' ardent desire for independent reunification and patriotic will. When all the fellow countrymen in the north and the south and abroad continue to boost the atmosphere of national reconciliation and unity as required by the June 15 era of reunification and further intensify solidarity in the movement for independent reunification and the struggle for peace against war, they have nothing fearful and insurmountable even if they face grave hardships under any complicated situation.
