10th Meeting of Joint Presidium of Pomminryon Held
Pyongyang, February 28 (KCNA) -- The 10th meeting of the Joint Presidium of the Pan-national Alliance for Korea's Reunification (Pomminryon) was held through exchange of facsimile messages between the north, the south and overseas sides on Saturday.

The meeting reviewed last year's work of Pomminryon for national reunification and discussed its action orientation and tasks for this year, etc.

A report was made there.

It noted that last year Pomminryon dynamically waged the movement for defending and implementing the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration under the banner of "By our nation itself" and the struggle against the moves of the anti-reunification forces at home and abroad to incite confrontation among the nation.

It stated that the organization set a "period of the movement for implementing the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration" from June 15 to October 4 this year, encouraging all Koreans to the movement for reunification.

Pomminryon will intensify the struggle to foil the reckless war scheme of the anti-reunification forces, strongly condemn the adventurous joint military exercises they stage with the foreign forces and more vigorously conduct the actions to get the U.S. forces withdrawn from south Korea, it declared.

The report stressed the need for Pomminryon to take the lead in the struggle to resolutely smash the south Korean conservative authorities' crackdown upon the pro-reunification patriotic forces, get the "National Security Law" and other fascist laws against the nation and reunification abrogated and realize the legalization of such organizations as the South Headquarters of Pomminryon, the South Headquarters of the Pan-national Alliance of Youth and Students for Korea's Reunification and the south Korean Federation of University Student Councils.

Pomminryon will as ever positively join efforts with the organizations and personages respecting the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and hoping for their implementation, irrespective of differences in ism and affiliation, and work together for the independent reunification, peace and prosperity, it said.

It stated that Pomminryon would arouse the broad masses at home and abroad to the movement for national reunification through stronger solidarity among the three parties, the north, the south and overseas sides, and powerfully accelerate the nationwide movement for steadily advancing the June 15 era.

A resolution was read out at the meeting.
