Message from Korean Committee for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries & Korean Associations for Friendship with European Countries About the 67th anniversary of the Victory in the Fatherland Liberation War

Warm greetings from Pyongyang.

Coming 27th July will mark the 67th anniversary of the great Fatherland Liberation War(Korean War) victory. Every year on this day, we deeply recall the exploits of Great Leader President Kim Il Sung who led the Korean War to victory defeating the aggression of allied imperialist forces led by the US.

Due to the brilliant leadership of President Kim Il Sung, the heroic Korean People' Army(KPA) and the people could defend the fatherland  in a confrontation that can be described as " confrontation of rifle and atomic bomb", reflecting grave military damage to imperialists and achieved great victory in the 3 years long war.

The US hurled into the war a huge armed forces over 2 million strong, including troops of the US and its 15 vassal states, the south Korean puppet army and the remnants of the former Japanese army, and enormous amounts of war material weighing over 73 million tons. In those days the US generals bragged that the war would be finished within 3 days, however, the war lasted for 3 years and the US signed an armistice agreement no better than an instrument of surrender.

At that time, KPA were only two-year-old, but still defeated the numerical and technical superiority of the imperialist invaders by means of political and ideological, strategic and tactical superiority and safeguarded the freedom and independence of the country and the people.

The victory of Korea against the allied imperialist forces with huge number and armed equipments, is an another proof of truth that the justice always wins. To Korean people, 27th July, the day they defeated the US that had been boasting of being the "strongest" in the world, will be remembered as the victory day for forever.

Korean people' history and tradition of victory continues as they elected the Respected Supreme Leader Comrade Kim Jong Un as the leader of revolution. Under his dynamic and brilliant leadership, Korea's strategical situation is upgrading day by day and no aggressive forces are dare to provocate Korea because now, they are one of the world's nuclear powers.

Even if there are any invaders, Korean people will successfully safeguard the safety and security of the country and people.
