All Koreans Urged to Remain True to Three Principles of National Reunification

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

   Pyongyang, March 27 (KCNA) -- The three principles of national reunification --independence, peaceful reunification and great national unity -- and the idea of "By our nation itself," an embodiment of the principles, serve as an invariable banner in the June 15 era of reunification to be consistently held aloft by all Koreans no matter what wind may blow.
    Rodong Sinmun Thursday says this in a signed article.
    It goes on:
    "By our nation itself" fully represents the idea of national independence and peaceful reunification, the idea of defending peace and the idea of the great national unity in the June 15 era of reunification.
    The reunification of the country is a matter to be settled by the Koreans themselves and an issue related to the sovereignty of the nation.
    As the U.S. imperialists, who divided the Korean Peninsula into two parts, are desperately hamstringing the efforts to achieve national reconciliation, unity and reunification while interfering in the internal issues of the Korean nation, it is more important than anything else to maintain independence and strictly abide by the Juche-based stand of the nation, while categorically rejecting and opposing flunkeyism and dependence upon foreign forces.
    National reunification should be achieved by peaceful means without recourse to force of arms.
    The differences in ideologies and systems cannot be solved by use of force and it is necessary, therefore, to achieve the reunification of the country by peaceful means under all circumstances, putting aside all differences.
    It is the great national unity of the Korean nation that can frustrate the moves of the separatist forces at home and abroad against national reunification and advance the movement for it. The eye-opening successes made in the above-said movement since the adoption of the June 15 joint declaration convincingly prove that the might of the Koreans united close in the idea of "By our nation itself" provides a sure guarantee for the victory in the cause of independent reunification.
    Specific methods may vary according to the change of the situation in the struggle for national reunification, but fundamental principles of national reunification can never change, concludes the article.
