It is the unanimous will of all Koreans in the north and the south and abroad to glorify this year as a very significant year of opening a new phase of independent reunification by stepping up the nationwide march towards reunification by the concerted efforts of the Koreans, the article notes, and goes on:

All Koreans in the north and the south and abroad should turn out as one with patriotic intention and will to dynamically push ahead with the cause of national reunification, smashing the obstructive maneuvers of the anti-reunification forces at home and abroad.

It is an important matter related to the rise and fall of the Korean nation to improve the inter-Korean relations and defuse the tension on the Korean peninsula. The Koreans will suffer tremendous disasters if another war breaks out on this land.

All Koreans should achieve solidarity, alliance and unity on the principle of subordinating everything to national reunification, the cause common to the nation.

They should step up the nationwide march for reunification, true to the noble intention and patriotic guidance of respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and thus fulfill their responsibility and duty before the times and history.
