Anniversary of June 15 North-South Joint Declaration Marked Abroad
Pyongyang, June 12 (KCNA) -- Newspapers of Russia and Bangladesh carried articles on the occasion of the 12th anniversary of the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration.

The 21st issue of the Russian newspaper Patriot in an article titled "Korean nation can never live separated from each other" said that the inter-Korean declaration opened a rosy prospect for achieving great national unity while demonstrating its vitality.

The south Korean authorities should not be allowed to give up their commitment made before the world under any circumstances, the article held.

It stressed Korea's reunification is sure to be achieved as it is led by ardent patriot Kim Jong Un.

The Bangladeshi paper Ekota on June 5 in an article titled "Korea's reunification and the idea of 'By our nation itself'" noted that Korea was divided into two parts by outside forces, not due to any contradiction within the nation.

Saying that peace and security on the Korean Peninsula means global peace and security, the article warned that if a war breaks out in the peninsula, it will lead to a thermo-nuclear war which mankind has never experienced.

The implementation of the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration is the only way for achieving national reunification, concluded the article.
