N Korean-Russian accord remains basic interstate document - Korean ForMin.
PYONGYANG, February 9 (Itar-Tass) -- The agreement on friendship,
neighbourliness and cooperation between North Korea and Russia continues to play a key role in the development of bilateral relations as the basic inter-state document, the Korean Central News Agency said on Tuesday, quoting a message, which was sent by North Korean Foreign Minister Pak Ui Chun to his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the document.
The North Korean foreign minister expressed confidence that "the
traditional relations of friendship and cooperation between the two
countries will further develop in all spheres in compliance with the
spirit of the agreement."
On Monday, the North Korean Foreign Ministry organised a party timed
to the anniversary.
During the party, deputy Chairman of the North Korean Supreme People's
Assembly (parliament) Yang Hyong Sop stressed, "We plan to promote the
traditionally friendly relations between Russia and North Korea in the
interests of the two peoples."
As an example, he reaffirmed that several days ago North Korean Head
of State Kim Jong-il personally had watched a new version of Eugene Onegin
opera, which was timed to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the
agreement.
The North Korean parliamentarian wished every success to Russia, which
is North Korea's friend and neighbour.
In his words, "the Korean army and the people will translate into
reality the great plan of the head of state, Kim Jong-il, and open the
gates of the powerful and prosperous power in 2012, when North Korea will
celebrate centenary of President Kim Il-sung."
Russian Ambassador to Pyongyang Valery Sukhinin said that the signing
of the agreement made it possible to intensify bilateral contacts between
the two parliaments, ministries and departments, non-governmental
organisations, as well as promote cooperation in the international arena.
He recalled progress in the interaction within the framework of the
six-nation talks on the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula.
"I hope that such cooperation will be continued up to the final
solution of that pressing problem," the head of the Russian diplomatic
mission said.
