Decision of DPRK Supreme People's Assembly


Pyongyang, January 16 (KCNA) -- The Supreme People's Assembly of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on Monday issued a decision on abolishing the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Country, the National Economic Cooperation Bureau and the Kumgangsan International Tourism Administration.


The two most hostile states, which are at war, are now in acute confrontation on the Korean peninsula, the decision said, and went on:


The reunification of Korea can never be achieved with the Republic of Korea which set it as its state policy to achieve the "unification by absorption" and "unification under liberal democracy". It is quite contrary to our national reunification line based on one nation, one state and two systems which we have adhered to for nearly 80 years.


It is a serious anachronistic mistake to regard the ROK as a partner for reconciliation and reunification any longer as it declared the DPRK as a "principal enemy" and is seeking only an opportunity for "bringing down the government" and achieving "unification by absorption" while keeping the uncontrollable crisis on the Korean peninsula in collusion with outside forces, the decision stressed.


Recognizing the stark historical reality and branding the ROK as the state most hostile to the DPRK, the Supreme People’s Assembly of the DPRK decided as follows:


1. The Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Country, the National Economic Cooperation Bureau and the Kumgangsan International Tourism Administration, tools which existed for north-south dialogue, negotiations and cooperation, are abolished


2. The Cabinet and relevant organs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea will take practical measures to implement this decision. -0-
