Rodong Sinmun Tuesday observes this in a signed article.

It is the law of the development of history for the just cause of the popular masses to triumph, the article notes, and goes on:

The June 15 cause has tremendous vitality as it is based on the idea of "By our nation itself", the national spirit in the new century, and it is sure to win as it is the cause for the Koreans themselves who are vitally interested in national reunification.

The June 15 cause is, in essence, a struggle to promote the reconciliation, unity and cooperation between the north and the south in the spirit of "By our nation itself" and represents the mental power of "By our nation itself" and, at the same time, the vitality of the above-said cause.

The only way out for the Korean nation is to achieve reunification. Let us pave the way for the nation and national reunification with do-or-die determination and will. This is the unanimous will of the Koreans living in the June 15 era of reunification.

Over the past decade of the June 15 era of reunification the Koreans fully demonstrated the truth and the vitality of the idea of "By our nation itself".

The final victory of the June 15 cause is sure to be accomplished only when the Koreans at home and abroad unite as firm as a rock under the banner of the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and wage a nationwide dynamic struggle to smash the moves of the anti-reunification forces to escalate the confrontation and start a war.
