Rodong Sinmun Marks Anniversary of June Popular Resistance in S. Korea
Pyongyang, June 10 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Wednesday dedicates an article to the 28th anniversary of the June popular resistance in south Korea.

The resistance was an eruption of pent-up resentment of the people against the colonial domination by the U.S. and unprecedented acts of treachery, fascist tyranny and anti-reunification policy by the Chun Doo Hwan military fascist clique. It recorded a brilliant page in the history of the south Korean people's struggle against the U.S. and fascism as it was mass resistance to bring about an independent and democratic new policy and life.

The resistance proved that the united efforts of the popular masses are inexhaustible and they can surely meet their requirements when all patriotic and democratic forces of south Korea aspiring after independence and reunification struggle against dictatorial forces by their concerted efforts, the article says, and goes on:

The popular resistance and the subsequent developments taught a serious lesson that people should not harbor any slightest expectation and illusion about the fascist dictators but wage a more dynamic struggle till the traitorous ruling quarters are thrown overboard to the last one in order to win victory in the struggle for independence, democracy and reunification.

The present south Korean situation in which "yusin" dictatorship is revived and the daily mounting anti-"government" struggle of the people from all walks of life are reminiscent of the eve of the June popular resistance in 1987.

South Korea is the society of fear and darkness where even a trace of democracy and human rights can not be found and a den of evils where pro-U.S. lackeys are escalating the confrontation with the compatriots in the north while selling off the dignity and interests of the nation. This situation requires another June popular resistance, all-people resistance to topple the regime of traitors.

It is the proud tradition of south Korean people to staunchly fight against the fascist dictators, remaining undaunted by dictatorship and injustice, the article concludes.
