First Kerry, now...
N Korea endorses Roh's party in South's poll, calling on voters to "'totally bury the pro-US conservative parties including the Grand National party [GNP] and the [Millennium] Democratic party,' and help the 'pro-reunification candidates win in the election'".
It is helpful to remember that in Korean politics, "pro-reunification" means being in favor of propping up the North Korean regime so that it does not collapse and thereby postponing reunification. Being labelled anti-reunification means that you want to avoid any support for the North Korean regime and hope for its people to someday have freedom and food, and reunification with the South.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
