The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK(ASSPUK), the Juche Idea Study Group of England(JISGE) , the UK Korean Friendship Association(UK KFA)and UK Preparatory Committee For the 2017 Gathering to Praise the Great Persons Born of Mt Paektu issued a joint statement on the occasion of the 17th anniversary of the historic June 15 north-south joint declaration;
  On the 15th of June it will be 17 years since the then south Korean chief executive Kim Dae Jung (himself a former political prisoner in south Korea ) made an unprecedented trip to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea where he met the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il  and signed the historic north-south declaration . The declaration was based on the principle of "By Our Nation Itself " meaning that Korea should be reunified by its own efforts not by the intervention of foreign powers. This was based on the three fundamental principles of reunification set down by the great leader President Kim Il Sung which were agreed by the south Korean side in July 1972. The concept of "By Our Nation Itself "
       The historic June 15th declaration was a bridge over the chasm of national division that had been imposed by outside forces principally the aggressive US imperialists. It was a bridge of hope , a rainbow bridge of unity and national reconciliation.
    The June 15 declaration fully represented the will and aspirations of the entire Korean people north and south for peaceful reunification. The June 15 declaration was the precious fruit of the persevering and continuous efforts of the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il who worked day and night for reunification. It was a lofty manifestation of the DPRK's stance for independent reunification and its profoundly peace-loving policy.
  The conclusion of the June 15 declaration led to many positive results  in the field of inter-Korean
co-operation with the realisation of many joint projects between the DPRK and south Korea. However it was negated by the fascist puppet regimes of Lee Myung Bak and Park Geun Hye . Park in particular drove the Korean peninsula to the point of war.
  Park has now been cast into the dustbin of history by the south Korean people . However the June 15 declaration has not realised . There needs to be a struggle for full independence and democratisation of south Korea as well as the scrapping of THAAD and the ending of provocative
war exercises.
 We support the struggle of the Korean people, including the south Korean people , for to realise their goals of the June 15 declaration and achieve reunification . We fully support the struggle for the withdrawal of US forces from south Korea and support the struggle of the AINDF, the Juche-orientated patriots of south Korea !
KOREA IS ONE !
