The Supreme People's Assembly of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on January 15 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:
Reunification of Korea can never be achieved with the Republic of Korea, which set it as its state policy to achieve "unification by absorption" and "unification of systems" that runs counter to the line of national reunification based on one nation, one state and two systems, which we have adhered to for nearly 80 years.
It is a seriously 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 regime" and achieving "unification by absorption" while keeping the uncontrollable crisis on the Korean peninsula in collusion with outside forces.
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 decides as follows:
1. The Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Country, the National Economic Cooperation Bureau and the Kumgangsan International Tourism Administration, organizations which existed for north-south dialogue, negotiations and cooperation, shall be abolished.
2. The Cabinet and relevant organs of the DPRK shall take practical measures to implement this decision.
