The declarations are the great programmes common to the nation as they clearly indicate the principle and way of opening a broad avenue to national reconciliation, unity, peace and independent reunification, the article says, adding:

The Panmunjom declaration is a historic one through which the north and the south of Korea declared to the whole world that they would make a new history of national harmony and usher in a new era of co-prosperity by pooling their will and efforts.

The "September Pyongyang Joint Declaration" reflecting the general will of the nation is a milestone for the country's reunification, which is designed to accelerate the development of the inter-Korean ties and usher in a new heyday of national reconciliation and unity, peace and prosperity by comprehensively and sincerely implementing the Panmunjom declaration.

Those declarations mirror the interests of both the north and the south.

The north and the south should move forward as indicated by the two declarations, without regard to any foreign interference and adversity.

The attitude towards the declarations is a touchstone of whether or not one desires the development of the inter-Korean relations and peace on the Korean peninsula.

No challenge and obstructions by the reactionaries of history will keep the Korean nation from advancing along the road indicated by the two declarations.
