To accomplish the cause of global independence is a unanimous desire of mankind, says the article, adding:

In the independent world, people are free from all kinds of domination, subjugation, interference and pressure as well as aggression and war.

The global independence can not be achieved without the friendship among the countries and nations around the world.

Only when all the countries support and solidarize with each other on the principles of independence, equality, mutual respect and noninterference in internal affairs, is it possible to make friendship among them a genuine and stable one.

To strengthen the friendly relations among countries and peoples aspiring after independence is a requirement of the present international situation.

The international relations today are developing towards multi-polarization.

The imperialists have tried to turn the world into a unipolar world swayed over by their highhanded and arbitrary practices and unilateralism.

Given the facts, when all the countries and peoples aspiring after independence strengthen genuine international friendship by supporting and cooperating with each other, they can foil the imperialist aggression forces' domination and achieve national prosperity and development.

The DPRK will as ever form and develop the good neighborly relations of friendship and cooperation with all other countries that respect its sovereignty and are friendly to it. By doing so, it will make great contributions to frustrating the imperialists' policy of war and domination, defending peace and realizing independence of the world.
