Koreans' Organization in U.S. Commemorates Anniversary of October 4 Declaration
Pyongyang, October 9 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Federation of Koreans in the U.S. made public a statement on Oct. 5 on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the October 4 declaration.

The statement said that the October 4 declaration is a precious one guaranteeing national reunification, peace and prosperity as a programme for implementing the June 15 joint declaration.

The declaration has not been implemented though five years passed since its adoption owing to the traitorous and anti-reunification moves of the Lee Myung Bak regime of south Korea, it noted, and went on:

Although temporary difficulties lie in the way of reunification, they can never quell the desire of the nation for independent and peaceful reunification.

It is necessary to put an end to the military hostile relations between the north and the south and establish a peace-keeping regime by fully implementing the declaration.

We will brand the group keen to escalate confrontation with fellow countrymen and ignite a war as the enemy of the nation and mete out a stern punishment to it.

Koreans in the U.S. will struggle in unity with all compatriots at home and overseas who support the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and are ready to implement them to the last.
