Pyongyang, August 4 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Tuesday dedicates a signed article to the 12th anniversary of the publication of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's work "Let Us Carry Out the Great Leader Comrade Kim Il Sung's Instructions for National Reunification". The work comprehensively clarifies the tasks and ways for achieving the reunification of the country such as the issue of settling the reunification issue on the principle of national independence, the issue of achieving the great unity on the principle of placing the common interests of the nation above anything else, the issue of reunifying the country in a peaceful way, the issue of founding a reunified state of the nation based on the federal formula and the issue of improving the north-south relations. The article says: Thanks to the publication of the work all Koreans turned out in the nationwide struggle for accomplishing the cause of independent reunification with redoubled efforts, confident of the validity and victory of the Juche-based line of reunification, without the slightest vacillation despite the anti-reunification whirlwind. As a result, they could greet the stirring June 15 era of reunification, The situation, conditions and circumstances may change but the basic principles of national reunification laid down by President Kim Il Sung remain unchanged. The Korean nation should certainly accomplish the cause of independent reunification, holding aloft the three charters for national reunification carrying with the noble intention and instruction of the President for reunification and patriotism as a banner of certain victory. The June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration which fully embody the three charters for national reunification set forth by the President serve as great reunification programmes common to the nation and landmarks for independent reunification in the new century. In order to reunify the country peacefully on the basis of national independence and great unity and push forward the development of inter-Korean relations, it is imperative to firmly defend and thoroughly implement the historic June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration, a programme for implementing it. No matter how desperately the Lee Myung Bak group may work to escalate the confrontation with the DPRK while denying the said declarations, it can never quell the desire and will of all Koreans to achieve independent reunification, peace and prosperity by their concerted efforts under the banner of the declarations. |
