The chairperson of the Juche Philosophy Study Committee of India said:

The north-south summit was held in June, 2000 for the first time in the history of the Korean division.

By Our Nation Itself is the core of the joint declaration and the basic idea of Korea's reunification.

It was the unbending will of HE Kim Jong Il to achieve reunification of the country by the concerted efforts of all Koreans.

Thanks to HE Kim Jong Un who is invariably carrying forward HE Kim Jong Il's idea of national reunification, Korea will surely be reunified.

The chief of the Dresden group and other speakers praised Kim Jong Il for performing feats for the national reunification, noting the publication of the June 15 joint declaration marked an occasion in heralding the new start of the movement for Korea's reunification.

They said that the historic Panmunjom declaration was adopted thanks to the respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un who is successfully carrying out the behests of the great leaders for national reunification.
