Saturday June 15, 2019 — 2:00-6:00 pm
TNG Community Centre, 349 Ontario Street
Keynote Speaker: Professor Kiyul Chung, 21st. Century Institute, Washington D.C.
Associate Professor, Kim Il Sung University, Pyongyang, DPRK
Everyone is warmly invited to a public forum on the struggle for peace, security and denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula on the occasion of the 19th anniversary of the historic June 2000 North-South Joint Declaration signed by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the Republic of Korea (ROK).
This forum is taking place in the context of recent developments including the Panmunjom Declaration between the DPRK and ROK in April 2018, and the subsequent DPRK-U.S. Summits in Singapore in June 2018 and in Hanoi in February 2019. These developments have created the potential for a new era of peace on the Korean Peninsula and normalization of relations between the DPRK and the U.S. by establishing a process of reciprocal steps to end the past history of hostility and confrontation.
However, progress toward a solution based on mutual interest has been blocked by the insistence of the U.S. side on unilateral demands for the dismantling of the legitimate defence capacity of the DPRK.
Organized by: Korea Truth Commission (Canadian Chapter) and Korean Federation in Canada.
