Petition for Official Declaration of Peace Treaty with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)
Immediate action towards officially declaring an end to the Korean War by signing a Peace Treaty with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), aka North Korea, is hightime past due. Such an action will have a significant impact on the lives of millions of people and pave the way for lasting peace and stability in the region. The Korean War, aka the Forgotten War, only reached a ceasefire in 1953 but never an offical Peace Treaty declaration with the United States.
Who is impacted?
The ongoing state of armistice without a formal peace treaty has had a profound impact on the lives of countless individuals inside and outside of the DPRK. Families have been separated, humanitarian efforts have been hindered (even more so since the Covid-19 Pandemic), and tensions have persisted for far too long.
The people of both North and South Korea have endured the consequences of this unresolved conflict, and it is time to address their needs and aspirations for a better future.
What is at stake?
By officially declaring an end to the Korean War with a Peace Treaty, we have the opportunity to redefine the relationship between nations and foster an environment of trust and cooperation. This historic step will not only bring relief and comfort to the people directly affected by the conflict but also have broader implications for regional stability, international relations, and the pursuit of global peace. It is crucial to recognize that the status quo is unsustainable and that a formal peace agreement is vital for long-term peacebuilding efforts.
Why is now the time to act?
The time for action is now. Consider the gravity of the situation from the current presidential administration syaing they are sending nuclear armed submarines to station in South Korea to incessant military escalation on the Korean Peninsula, and take decisive steps towards initiating negotiations for a Peace Treaty with the DPRK. By joining the cause for peace on the Korean Peninsula you will not only demonstrate your commitment to peace, justice, and the well-being of all those affected by this prolonged conflict in the Far East but also those in the West because peace in the East helps ensure peace in the West.
