DPRK Remains Unchanged in Its Stand to Mend Inter-Korean Relations: Rodong Sinmun
Pyongyang, January 31 (KCNA) -- The DPRK set it as a primary task to steadily improve the inter-Korean relations in the whole course of the cause of national reunification and has spared no efforts to carry it out, says Rodong Sinmun Tuesday in an article.

The DPRK remains unchanged in its stand to achieve the reunification of the country and prosperity of the nation through improvement of the north-south relations, the article says, and goes on:

Its proactive measures for mending the north-south relations are prompted by the Juche-based stand to settle the issue of national reunification by the concerted efforts of the Koreans responsible for it, the patriotic standpoint of prioritizing the requirements and interests common to the nation.

No one can replace the Korean nation in settling its issue.

When the Koreans pool their will and intention, they will have nothing impossible to settle and can properly improve the north-south relations as desired by them.

How to approach toward improved inter-Korean relations is the touchstone distinguishing reunification from division and peace from war.

It is necessary to eliminate the anti-reunification forces to the last one in order to improve the inter-Korean relations as early as possible.

The reality goes to prove that the Korean nation cannot achieve peace and the reunification of the country but may suffer irrevocable disasters of a nuclear war unless positive measures are taken to remove the obstacles to mending the north-south relations.
