Rodong Sinmun Saturday stresses this in a signed article.

To unite under the banner of independence is the fundamental principle of the revolutionary struggle and a decisive guarantee for its victory, it says, and goes on:

The reactionaries of history are in mortal fear of the popular masses' cohesion under the banner of independence and, accordingly, they attempt to check it at any cost.

Now the imperialists are making desperate efforts to break the unity of the progressive people struggling for independence and gratify their wild ambition for domination over the world.

Their cunning and mean moves to sow disintegration and dissension are bringing dispute and confrontation and even armed conflict and war crisis to different regions and countries.

The reality goes to prove that the countries and nations desirous of independence and peace should closely unite under the banner of independence and vigorously wage the concerted struggle against the imperialists seeking world supremacy.

To strengthen international solidarity of those countries and nations is essential for achieving the unity of the world forces for independence against imperialism and intensifying the joint struggle.

The international unity is achieved and strengthened when all countries and nations support the struggle and activities of each other for independence and ensure their solidarity.

The movement for strengthened unity of the anti-imperialist independent forces and their joint struggle is getting intensified and the advance toward independence being accelerated in Asia, Africa, Latin America and other regions of the world. On the contrary, the dominationist forces are getting further weakened and isolated, thus rolling into a pit of ruin day by day.

The cause of global independence is sure to emerge victorious by the struggle of the progressive people united under the banner of independence.
