Pre-statement meetings edit

On May 2, 1972, South Korean president Park Chung Hee sent Lee Hu-rak, the then-director of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency (KCIA), to Pyongyang to meet and discuss the prospects of improving inter-Korean relations and Korean reunification with North Korean premier Kim Il Sung. However, the North Korean delegation was represented by Kim Yong-ju, the director of North Korea's Organization and Guidance Department and Kim Il Sung's younger brother, instead of Kim Il Sung. The two delegations, headed by Lee and Kim, held talks over the course of four days, from May 2 to 5, 1972. North Korean Vice Premier Pak Song-chol, acting on behalf of Kim Yong-ju, later visited Seoul and held further talks with Lee Hu-rak from May 29 to June 1, 1972. A joint statement by the governments of the two Koreas was subsequently finalized on July 4, 1972.[4]

Highlights edit

The declared goals of the statement were "to remove the misunderstandings and mistrust, and mitigate heightened tensions ... between the South and North", and "to expedite unification".[4]

The two delegations agreed to the following principles as a basis for achieving Korean reunification:

  1. Unification shall be achieved independently, without depending on foreign powers and without foreign interference.
  2. Unification shall be achieved through peaceful means, without resorting to the use of force against each other.
  3. A great national unity as one people shall be sought first, transcending differences in ideas, ideologies, and systems.
