20th Congress of WFDY Supports Korean People's Just Cause
Pyongyang, December 14 (KCNA) -- The 20th Congress of the World Federation of Democratic Youth (WFDY) held in Cyprus supported the just cause of the Korean people.

A statement was issued by the WFDY on Dec. 6 in support of the people and youth of the DPRK in their efforts to achieve durable peace and reunification of the Korean peninsula.

The statement pointed out that it is more than one year since the adoption of the June 12 DPRK-U.S. joint statement but the relations between the two countries are still in an impasse and the situation on the Korean peninsula locked in a vicious circle of escalated tensions.

To prevent a war and achieve durable peace on the Korean peninsula is on a par with a contribution to ensuring global peace and security, the statement said, calling upon the progressive people and youth of the world to actively join the people of the DPRK in their struggle to defend the country's sovereignty and dignity and remove the danger of war from the peninsula once and for all.

The statement expressed firm belief that the people and youth of the DPRK are sure to win in the anti-imperialist sacred war of justice.

Meanwhile, a solidarity statement against imperialism was adopted at the Asia-Pacific Conference of the WFDY on Dec. 5. It condemned all the acts of wrecking peace and stability on the Korean peninsula, worsening regional situation and barring global peace and prosperity.

The statement extended full support and solidarity to the Korean people and youth in their efforts to establish a mechanism of lasting peace on the Korean peninsula and reunify the country by the concerted efforts of the nation without outside forces' interference.
