U.S. moves against Korean reunification assailed
Pyongyang, March 28 (KCNA) -- The Bush administration is intentionally
letting loose a spate of adventurous remarks, getting on the nerves of the
DPRK and hurting its feelings in a bid to block the movement for Korean
reunification. In this regard Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary
says:
The U.S. ruling quarters are talking about a "hardline," raising silly
questions as to the DPRK. This cannot be construed otherwise than a
premeditated move to realise their ambition to dominate the whole of Korea.
They seek to hold up the process for reconciliation and reunification on
the Korean peninsula by pursuing a hardline policy towards the DPRK and
strain the situation there again in a bid to carry out their strategy to
invade it. This is a vicious challenge to and anachronistic provocation
against the desire of the Korean nation for reunification.
What the Bush administration should do as regards the Korean issue is to
honestly implement the DPRK-U.S. agreed framework, withdraw its aggressor
forces from South Korea and take its hands off the Korean issue.
The U.S. reactionary conservatives' moves against the DPRK and
reunification have put into a danger Korea's reunification and the security
of the nation.
The U.S. imperialists' moves to stop the process for reconciliation and
reunification of the Korean nation under the absurd pretext of "threat" from
the DPRK should be checked.
If the U.S. imperialists are allowed to keep Korea divided into two
parts forever and seek their interests in it, the Korean nation will never
achieve the reunification of the country nor escape from serious disasters.

U.S. hostile policy towards DPRK denounced
Pyongyang, March 28 (KCNA) -- The Russian party for peace and unity
issued a statement on march 21 denouncing the new U.S. administration's
hostile policy towards the DPRK. Noting that the U.S. and Japan are massing
huge ground and naval forces in Japan and stepping up arms buildup against
the DPRK, aggravating the situation on the Korean peninsula, the statement
said:
We consider this as an attempt of the new U.S. administration to hold up
the process for reunification of the north and south of Korea by force of
arms, displeased with it.
We can not remain a passive onlooker to the tensions increasing on the
Korean peninsula due to the new U.S. administration's hostile policy towards
the DPRK and its expansionist policy.
The U.S. intensified moves for aggression in that most important part of
the world will bring about irrevocable consequences. they directly threaten
peace and humankind.
The socialist progressive party of Madagascar in its statement issued on
March 20 said that the new U.S. administration's hostile policy to stifle
socialist Korea has become ever more undisguised.
This is a challenge to the DPRK-U.S. agreed framework and the desire of
progressive humankind to build a peaceful, free and new world without war,
the statement added.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Training of computer geniuses brisk in DPRK
Pyongyang, March 28 (KCNA) -- Efforts are made to train computer
geniuses in the DPRK from the outset of the new century. Competent teaching
staffs have already been posted at computer genius training centres and the
selection of brilliant pupils is over nationwide.
A final touch is now given to the building of those training centres
with the approach of a new school year.
Scores of projects including computer study rooms, rooms for hobby
groups, printing rooms and service rooms have already been completed.
The expansion projects for dormitories and dining halls are now
underway.
Meanwhile, institutions concerned including the Korean Computer Centre
are going ahead with such technical preparations as installation and test of
computers in a responsible manner, while pushing ahead with the work to form
a computer database network at those centres.
Teachers, scientists and technicians at various educational and
scientific research institutes including Kim Il Sung University and Kim
Chaek University of Technology are busy writing textbooks and reference
books necessary for the training of computer geniuses. Classrooms are being
fitted with furniture and equipment.
Those centres will be inaugurated on April 1 amid the concern of the
whole country.

Rodong Sinmun on three principles of national reunification
Pyongyang, March 28 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today says in a signed
article that the three principles of national reunification -- independence,
peaceful reunification and great unity of the nation -- are a great
programme of reunification common to the nation which the north and south of
Korea confirmed in the July 4 Joint Statement as the main principle of
resolving the issue of reunification and solemnly declared at home and
abroad. The article goes on:
The three principles are the foundation stone for national reunification
indicating the main principles, way and guarantee for settling the issue of
national reunification with the efforts of the Korean nation itself in
conformity with its demand for independence and fundamental interests.
The principle of independence, one of the three principles, is the
fundamental principle of national reunification stemming from the character
of the issue of national reunification.
To solve the issue of national reunification independently is the
principled and consistent stand of the Workers' Party of Korea and the DPRK
government.
The independent stand represents the basic stand that the Korean nation
should maintain in achieving its independent reunification and the three
principles clarifying it are the fundamental cornerstone of national
reunification.
The principle of peaceful reunification, one of the three principles,
prescribes the basic way of national reunification.
It is the principled stand and invariable line of the WPK to achieve
national reunification in a peaceful way, not by force.
To reunify Korea in a peaceful way conforms with the interests and
desire of the world people to build an independent and peaceful new world.
The principle of the great unity of the nation, one of the three
principles, is the basic guarantee for the north and south of Korea to solve
the issue of reunification with their concerted efforts irrespective of
different ideologies and systems.
The reunification of Korea is sure to come as the Korean nation has the
three principles of national reunification and the north-south joint
declaration, the banner of joint national struggle embodying the principles,
indicates the way ahead of national reunification.

Japanese government to stop its distortion of history at once and take a
relevant measure.
