The statement said:

We express full support and solidarity with the crucial proposal sent by the NDC of the DPRK to the south Korean authorities, recognizing it as the most realistic and fair one for achieving peace and stability on the Korean peninsula by concerted efforts of the Korean nation.

The crucial proposal is a clear expression of the sincere efforts made by the DPRK government to achieve the independent and peaceful reunification of Korea, the common desire of all the Korean people.

If another war breaks out on the Korean peninsula, only the Korean people will fall victim to horrible disaster.

Therefore, we urge the south Korean authorities to respond to the crucial proposal of the NDC of the DPRK without delay.
