Adherence to Principle of National Independence Called for

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

   Pyongyang, February 29 (KCNA) -- The principle of national independence calls for solving all issues by the concerted efforts of the nation, rejecting the aggressive and anti-reunification foreign forces' domination and interference. It serves as a fundamental principle of national reunification over which the Korean nation should neither make any slightest concession nor allow itself to slacken it under any circumstances and lifeblood for achieving independent reunification.
    Rodong Sinmun today says this in a signed article.
    It goes on:
    The above-said principle serves as lifeblood for the movement for independent reunification because the issue of national reunification is an internal issue of the Korean nation, in any respect, as it is related to the destiny of the Koreans and their prospect.
    The issue of national reunification is an issue of the Korean nation which allows no interference from outside forces and a matter on which the future of the nation hinges. No foreign forces, therefore, have any right to interfere in the internal affairs of the Korean nation and no one can replace the Korean people in the struggle to reunify the country.
    The cause of independent reunification can be successfully achieved in line with the will and interests of the nation only through the concerted efforts of the Koreans, the driving force for national reunification. It is only the Korean nation that has the will to achieve national reunification and is capable of doing so.
    The Korean nation can achieve anything in the world should all its members have the strong spirit of national independence to wage the movement for national reunification by firmly believing in their strength and relying on them, rejecting flunkeyism and dependence on the foreign forces. The spirit of national independence represents the firm will and faith to settle all problems arising in the movement for reunification by the concerted efforts of the Korean nation, vehemently opposing and rejecting the foreign domination and interference in the matter of achieving the cause of national reunification, an issue related to the sovereignty of the nation.
    The Korean nation should adhere to and apply the principle of national independence which does not allow any foreign domination and interference even a bit, fully responsible for accomplishing the cause of national reunification. Herein lies the master key to settling the issue of national reunification independently in line with the desire and interests of the nation.
