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

   Pyongyang, January 7 (KCNA) -- The historic October 4 declaration is a solemn declaration heralding a new era of independent reunification and peace and prosperity, and it is a significant declaration in which the north and the south of Korea reaffirmed the spirit of the June 15 joint declaration and promised to accelerate peace and cooperation and national reunification on its basis.
    Rodong Sinmun Monday says this in a signed article.
    The October 4 declaration clarifies tasks and ways for solving all problems for developing inter-Korean relations, securing durable peace of the country and achieving common prosperity of the nation, the article notes, and goes on:
    The above-said tasks are realistic problems for implementing the landmark program for independent reunification set forth in the June 15 joint declaration and their fulfillment promotes the implementation of the joint declaration.
    The reality of the movement for national reunification which has entered a new stage of development calls upon the north and the south to dynamically carry out the patriotic cause of the development of north-south relations and peace and prosperity as clarified in the October 4 declaration, holding the June 15 joint declaration as the banner of independent reunification.
    The north and the south are parties directly responsible for the implementation of the October 4 declaration. Anyone who loves the country and the nation and wants national reunification should support and defend the October 4 declaration and strive to implement it.
    Only when all Koreans at home and abroad, masters of the national reunification movement, turn out as one, is it possible to successfully implement the October 4 declaration. All the compatriots, whether they be in the north and the south or overseas, should turn out in the patriotic drive to implement the October 4 declaration, as set forth in the joint New Year editorial, transcending the differences in political view and religious belief, occupation and social strata.
