Pyongyang, July 9 (KCNA) -- The DPRK permanent representative to the UN Friday sent a letter to the UN under-secretary general as regards the letter sent by the UN Secretariat in response to the letter of the participants in the joint conference of the government, political parties, and organizations of the DPRK dated June 9, 2016. The letter said: The peace, security and reunification are the crucial issues to be addressed urgently under the current situation of the Korean peninsula, which is being driven towards the extreme danger of nuclear war. As well known, the UN adopted resolution 3390 at the 30th Session of the UN General Assembly in 1975, resolution A/res/55/11 at the 55th Session of the UNGA in 2000 and resolution A/res/62/5 at the62nd Session of the UNGA in 2007 respectively with regard to the peace, security and reunification of the Korean peninsula. In the resolutions are reflected the issues of dismantling so called "United Nations Command" stationed in south Korea, withdrawing outside forces, replacing the armistice agreement with peace agreement, implementing the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration adopted between the north and south. The resolutions are reflecting the agreement of the north and the south and the good will of the international society and it is regrettable that they are not being implemented until today due to the hostile policy of the United States against the DPRK and its interference. In view of the nature and significance of the UNGA resolutions regarding the issues of the Korean peninsula and the mission of the UN, I believe that the UN Secretariat should surely attach priority to the implementation of the resolutions. The question of implementation of the UNGA resolutions will be a touchstone of indicating who is truly in favor of the peace, security and reunification of the Korean peninsula and furthermore the implementation of the UNGA resolutions will be in conformity with the principles of the impartiality and independence to which the UN Secretariat should keep steadfast as its life line in the exercise of its activities. We look forward to the UN Secretariat for its active contribution towards lifting the United States' hostile policy against the DPRK, the policy which is the root cause of blocking the way towards peace and reunification of the Korean peninsula, and the implementation of the UNGA resolutions which are in reflection of the good will of the north and the south of Korea and the international society. |
