Pyongyang, October 1 (KCNA) — The DPRK government will as always make every possible effort to achieve national reconciliation and unity, usher in a new era of independent reunification, peace and prosperity and ensure durable peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula by implementing the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration and the October 4 declaration to the letter.

Pak Kil Yon, vice-minister of Foreign Affairs who is heading the DPRK delegation, declared this at the plenary meeting of the 63rd UN General Assembly on September 27.

Noting that the efforts for reforming the UN and enhancing its role should be made in direction of building a free and peaceful, new world, he said:

It is essential to prevent such important international issues as global peace and security from being decided on in the interests of some specified countries.

To this end, it is necessary to decisively enhance the authority of the UNGA, where all its member nations exercise the equal right to representation, and strongly reject aggression against sovereign countries and interference in their internal affairs, the practices being conducted under the pretext of "protecting human rights".(more) [Korean]
