The bulletin in an article said:

The June 15 north-south joint declaration is called a milestone of Korea's reunification.

Over a decade has passed but the idea of "By our nation itself", basic spirit of the declaration, keeps serving as an invariable banner of Korea's reunification.

It is because this idea is consistent with the transparent spirit of national independence.

The miraculous reality created on the Korean Peninsula after the publication of the joint declaration eloquently showed that reunification can surely be achieved when the whole nation gets united.

Korea's reunification will finally come true when all the Koreans perfectly embody the spirit of the great unity.

The idea of "By our nation itself" provides a fundamental guarantee for defending peace.

Today the Korean Peninsula has become one of the world's hotspots.

The south Korean authorities took active part in the U.S. persistent policy to stifle the DPRK and pose military threat, rendering the regional situation extremely tense.

Had the south Korean authorities respected the idea of "By our nation itself" the situation on the peninsula would not have been put in such crisis as now.

There is no other way than to implement the joint declaration in realizing Korea's reunification.
