KCNA Commentary Calls for Eliminating Dregs of History

Pyongyang, September 26 (KCNA) -- The world has been greatly shocked by the historic 5th inter-Korean summit meeting and talks.

The whole course of the summit in Pyongyang was a continuation of excitement and wonder and an event to be specially recorded in history which demonstrated before the world the Korean nation's strong sense of independence, desire for peace and will for reunification.

Truly tremendous is the significance of the "September Pyongyang Joint Declaration" through which the north and the south of Korea pledged before the world to consistently develop in a sustained way their relations for national reconciliation, cooperation, solid peace and co-prosperity and make the Korean peninsula a land of peace without nuclear weapons and nuclear threats.

No wonder, not only the Koreans but the neighboring countries and the whole world including the U.S. warmly welcome and support it, commenting that "the results of the talks surpassed the expectation of the outside world".

But the ultra-right conservative forces of south Korea including the "Liberal Korea Party" are still mired in the confrontation.

The conservative group, which has been going mischievous before the summit, is now spitting out almost every day such ill-boding words that "the south is taken in by the north's tactics, they were talks that accepted the north's stand only, the agreement hoodwinked the defense field without taking practical measure for denuclearization and astronomical amount of taxes collected from people are to be offered to the north".

This was something expected in the light of the nature of the conservatives, but what is utterly shocking is such wicked and narrow-minded remarks intended to chill the desire of the fellow countrymen and humankind for peace, stability and reunification of the Korean peninsula.

They only revealed the criminal nature of the political philistines who, feeling pleasure at the pain of the nation suffering from division, have prolonged their remaining days with confrontation and war.

The behaviors of the conservatives in the course of the nation's past efforts for peace and reunification of the Korean peninsula prove that they have only destroyed things, not creating anything.

The two north-south summit meetings in Pyongyang in the last decade reflective of the whole nation's strong desire for reunification, and the birth of the historic June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration have no relations with the conservative forces.

The conservative group only totally denied the valuable agreements common to the nation, and viciously stood in the way of their implementation, thus pushing the north-south ties to a total stalemate.

The conservatives are now again trying to tarnish the "September Pyongyang Joint Declaration" and its historic significance. They are, indeed, a group of traitors disgracing the Korean nation, destroyer of peace and a cancer-like entity standing in the way of reunification.

Now south Koreans from all walks of life denounce the "Liberal Korea Party", querying how long it is going to stay as an observer and disturber of peace, terming it a party worse than conservative organizations.

Dregs of history that have been ostracized by the strong trend of the nation for reconciliation and cooperation must be eliminated at an early date. -0-
