Koreans Called upon to Wage Three-point Patriotic Movement

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

  Pyongyang, January 22 (KCNA) -- What is important for the Korean nation to step up their advance for national reunification this year is to conduct the vigorous patriotic movement for independent reunification, peace against war and great national unity, says Rodong Sinmun Sunday in a signed article. This three-point patriotic movement serves as a weapon and a basic method of patriotic struggle to step up the advance for national reunification in the idea of "By our nation itself", the article says, and goes on:
    This movement is a powerful weapon for independent reunification.
    The 60 odd-year-long history of the movement for national reunification teaches a lesson that only when all the countrymen unite close under the banner of independence, is it possible to foil the moves of anti-reunification forces at home and abroad and open up a broad avenue for reunification. A key to meeting the outsiders' challenge for domination and aggression and developing the process of reconciliation and reunification is to conduct patriotic movement for independent reunification. The sovereignty of the nation and its reunification are guaranteed only when all the Koreans deeply cherish their national responsibility and their mission for the times and make the nation-first spirit of attaching importance to the nation and hot wind for reunification prevail throughout the Korean Peninsula.
    The three-point patriotic movement is the motive force of the struggle to defend the peace of the country and the security of the nation. The most dangerous force harassing peace on the Korean Peninsula at present is the United States. The U.S. imperialists are violators of world peace as well as vicious harassers of peace of the Korean Peninsula.
    Even at this moment the U.S. is working hard to provoke a new war while engaging itself in the anti-DPRK campaign to hamper the independent reunification of the Korean nation and dominate the whole of Korea.
    The strength to foil their moves for aggression, defend peace and pave the way for reunification lies in the patriotic movement for peace against war. The movement also puts great spurs to the drive for great national unity for the dignity and prosperity of the nation.
    Only when the Koreans conduct a vigorous patriotic movement for great national unity in high spirit along the road indicated by the June 15 era of reunification, can they open up a bright future for reunification and prosperity along the track of the harmony and great unity of the nation. Great national unity constitutes a fundamental factor of wonderful successes made in the movement for national reunification and in the improvement of the inter-Korean relations in the June 15 era of reunification.
    The Korean nation will surely make big achievements in the movement for national reunification when it advances holding high the torch of the patriotic movement for independent reunification, peace against war and great national unity, the article concludes.
