Speech of Jeremy Biergener KFA Germany to the Radio Belarus International Conference

 

Dear friends and comrades,

Dear listeners of Radio Belarus

 

Today we have heard many great speeches about the great anti-imperialist struggle of the DPRK and I am confident that the following speeches will be just as excellent.

 

Today I'd like to talk about something that is not talked about although it is very central to the modern anti-imperialist movement, and that is the role of the DPRK in creating the concept of a multipolar world order. Although President KIM IL SUNG didn't use the exact term, it is clear that his concept of sovereignty in the whole world is what is now called the multipolar world order. In his 1986 work, „The Historical Experience of the Development of the WPK“, President KIM IL SUNG says:

 

„An important condition for advancing the world revolution is the realisation of sovereignty throughout the world. In such a world, imperialism and colonialism will be completely eliminated and the sovereignty of all countries and nations will be secured forever. Then the way will be open for every country and nation to create a new, independent and prosperous society and to realise the sovereignty of the popular masses.“

 

This is what many people today understand by a multipolar world order. But it's not the first time President KIM IL SUNG has mentioned this concept. The multipolar world order is an essential part of the Juche idea. It was first mentioned in President Kim Il Sung's historic speech at the Kalun Conference in 1930, the speech in which he first presented the Juche idea to the Korean people. In this speech he said

 

„Since our aim is to carry through none other than the Korean revolution, we should solve all problems arising in the course of that revolution by our own efforts, proceeding from the specific conditions in our country.“ Later in this speech he says: „We need not get someone else’s approval to our revolutionary movement. Whether anyone approves or not, we will succeed if we conduct our revolution properly.“

 

This shows President KIM IL SUNG's commitment to the idea of sovereignty on which the multipolar world order is based at a time when many communists in Korea and the world were infected with the funkyism to the Soviet Union and the Comintern.

 

Comrade KIM JONG IL pointed out the hegemonic role of US imperialism in the unipolar world order. In his prestigious work "Characteristics of Modern Imperialism and it's Aggressive Nature" he pointed out:

 

„In the past, the imperialist states were in serious contradictions and conflicts with each other. But on the occasion of the Second World War, the internal situation of imperialism changed. Of the imperialist powers, fascist Germany, Italy and Japan suffered a defeat, France and Great Britain weakened considerably, while US imperialism became more obese and expanded economically and militarily.

In 1948, US imperialism accounted for 53.9 per cent of industrial production and 74.5 per cent of the stock of gold in the capitalist world. On the basis of this economic potential, it reduced the other imperialist countries to its debtors and tied them up with the noose of aggressive ‘aid’.

As its own power continued to grow and the other imperialist countries found themselves in extremely unfavourable positions, US imperialism blatantly revealed its intention to act as ringleader of world imperialism, to hold the capitalist world by the hand and rule over the world.

Those imperialist countries that were robbed of their former sphere of influence and extremely weakened tried in turn to maintain their disintegrating system of rule under the aegis of US imperialism.

The aggressive intention of US imperialism to achieve world domination and the efforts of the other imperialist countries to maintain their collapsing system of rule under the aegis of the USA bound them together, so that the imperialist system was restructured with US imperialism as ringleader.

This reconstruction is reflected in the fact that US imperialism, under the deceptive slogan ‘defence of the free world’, is making the other imperialist countries into henchmen of its aggressive policy and dictating the US dollar as the leading currency of the capitalist world to these countries. In the military sphere, various aggressive military blocs have been established and, by controlling and managing them, the standards of military technology and military intelligence systems of the imperialist countries have been unified.“

 

But the role of the DPRK in the struggle against imperialism for a multipolar world order is not only theoretical. The DPRK plays a key role in the development of South-South cooperation. For example, by building and strengthening the non-aligned movement and providing solidarity and internationalist aid to the struggles of the peoples of the global south, such as military aid to Vietnam in it's struggle against US imperialism and military aid to Egypt and Syria in their struggle against Zionism. Today the DPRK is firmly on the side of Russia in it's struggle against the US-created neo-Nazism in Ukraine and on the side of the Palestinian people against the US-backed Zionist regime which is occupying large parts of Palestine and suppressing the Palestinian people's right to their own state, while at the same time the DPRK is the victim of one of the world's biggest propaganda campaigns, one of the world's toughest embargoes and US troops occupying the south of its country and regularly carrying out aggressive military manoeuvres.

 

This proves that the DPRK is a serious threat to the US and it's unipolar world order. I am convinced that the defeat of the US empire and the victory of the DPRK are inevitable under the wise leadership of Marshal KIM JONG UN.

 

Down with US-imperialism!

Down with the south-korean puppet-regime!

Long live Marshal KIM JONG UN!

Long live People´s Korea
