The respect for the great leader President Kim Il Sung from the world Juche idea followers and friends of People's Korea grow deeper with each passing year and indeed each passing day. Celebrating the birth of President Kim Il Sung is act an of practical solidarity with People's Korea.
                                                     
                                             

   We remember the great leader President Kim Il Sung,  on the day of his birth not only as the eternal president and fatherly leader of the Korean people but as an outstanding leader of the international communist movement and a great teacher of the world revolution and the oppressed and toiling peoples of the world.               
    The great leader comrade Kim Il Sung was born into the family of a poor peasant but rose to become a great leader of the people and a world statesman of great renown. He not only liberated Korea from the shackles of Japanese imperialism but turned the country into a formidable power, a socialist power of Juche, which defeated the US when it tried to invade the country.
                         
                                   

   The great leader President Kim Il Sung authored the Juche Idea, the idea that the popular masses are the masters of revolution and construction and have the ability to promote them. Juche is expressed in day-to-day terms by the idea of independence and the idea of self-reliance and self-defence. All the lines and policies of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea were and are profoundly permeated with the idea of independence.

The great leader President Kim Il Sung built a new independent Korea on the ruins of Japanese colonialism, he built a new Juche Korea which was not only free from the domination of imperialism but free from the intervention and pressure of big powers.
    By putting forward the line of armed struggle in the 1930s  the great leader President Kim Il Sung created the basis of the Songun Idea and Songun politics. Today the Songun Idea is the cutting edge of the anti-imperialist struggle for independence.
    The very name of the great leader President Kim Il Sung is associated with militant anti-imperialism as he taught that there should be no compromise with imperialism and that the anti-US, anti-imperialist struggle should be intensified.

                                     
                                                 

                                                   

               

  The great leader President Kim Il Sung was the benevolent father of the people who built a socialist state where the masses are the masters of everything. He built a socialist paradise in which there is full employment, free medical care, free education, even free housing and no taxation.              

              The achievements of the great leader President Kim Il Sung are celebrated not only by the Korean people but the revolutionary and progressive peoples throughout the world. The four corners of the globe reverberate with praise for the great leader President Kim Il Sung.

    Today the legacy of the great leader President Kim Il Sung,  is precisely the DPRK, the Juche Idea and Korean-style, people-centred socialism. This legacy is defended and carried forward by the dear respected Marshal Kim Jong Un who follows the road of independence, Juche and socialism holding high the bright red banner of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism and self-reliance. Under the leadership of respected Marshal Kim Jong Un , the Korean people are advancing towards higher goals under the banner of self-reliance.

              We join with the world's progressive people including the Juche Idea,  and true friends of People's Korea throughout the whole world in saluting the 113th anniversary of the great leader President Kim Il Sung!

Long live the memory of the great eternal leader President Kim Il Sung!

Long live self-reliance !

             8th of April 2026
  The British Group for the Study of the  Juche Idea(BGSJI)  and the  Korean Friendship Association of the UK(KFA UK) ) issued the following joint statement in support of the press statement of comrade Jang Kum Chol, first vice-minister and director general of the Tenth Department of the DPRK Foreign Ministry titled " The true colors of the ROK, the most hostile enemy state, can never change" which was issued on the 7th of April;

Recently comrade Kim Yo Jong department director of the Central Committee of the Workers Party of Korea gave her appraisal of the apology issued by the ROK president with regard to the drone intrusion of the DPRK . The ROK puppet regime fundamentally misinterpreted the statement of department director comrade Kim Yo Jong .

In his statement comrade Jang Kum Chol  refutes the misinterpretations of the ROK puppets and fully clarifies the stance of the DPRK towards the ROK puppets. Basically the statement issued by comrade Kim Yo Jong was a warning to the ROK puppets and the ROK puppets are indulging in "hope-filled dream reading"

Comrade Jang Kum Chol states clearly that "The identity of the ROK, the enemy state most hostile to the DPRK, can never change with any words or conduct.". This reflects the stand of the DPRK .

We believe that it is correct and just that the DPRK regards the ROK as the most hostile enemy state of the DPRK .  We would add the ROK is the worst ever puppet regime in the world , a total colony and culturally decadent and degnerate.

Press Statement of Jang Kum Chol, First Vice-Minister and Director General of Tenth Department of Foreign Ministry of DPRK

Pyongyang, April 7 (KCNA) -- Jang Kum Chol, first vice-minister and director general of the Tenth Department of the DPRK Foreign Ministry, issued the following press statement "The true colors of the ROK, the most hostile enemy state, can never change":

The department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea made public a press statement related to the ROK on Monday night.

Voices of Chongwadae and various circles in the ROK analyzing it are really something to see.

If the ROK side lets out nonsense, regarding the rapid response from our government as an "exceptional friendly response" and a "quick mutual confirmation of intentions by the top leaders," this will also be recorded as world-startling fools' "hope-filled dream reading"

The thematic core of the press statement was a clear warning.

As for the press statement of the department director of the Party Central Committee, she evidently gave a witty warning to the ROK with very short and gentle sentences and expressions.

As they have a bad ear and cannot understand, I would like to awaken them to the true meaning of the press statement I read.

"You did something good. If you want to live safely, you should candidly admit your sin like this. It is, indeed, beyond my imagination that there is such a quite frank man in a pack of brazen-faced ones. You should prevent recurrence if you want to be secure. You will have to pay dearly if you persist in rash acts before us. Do not irritate us if you want to live in comfort." This is the main idea of the press statement I read.

While referring to the so-called "resolution" cooked up a few days ago by the UN Human Rights Council, Department Director Kim Yo Jong told me today that those of the ROK are little short of the dogs affected by mange that blindly bark to the tune of neighboring dogs. She also asked me whether her last night's press statement was interesting.

Of course, I replied to her that the ROK side's "hope-filled dream reading" was very interesting.

The identity of the ROK, the enemy state most hostile to the DPRK, can never change with any words or conduct. -0-

Crimes of Japan, Sworn Enemy of Korean Nation

Pyongyang, April 7 (KCNA) -- After fabricating the "Ulsa Five-point Treaty" in a brigandish way, the Japanese imperialists buckled down to annexing Korea to Japan and making the Korean people its slaves.

To this end, the imperialists sought to provide a legal mechanism for usurping the feudal Korean government's authority for handling internal affairs, which existed only for form's sake.

The Japanese imperialists regarded as the first obstacle Emperor Kojong who remained opposed to their seizure of Korea's sovereignty at that time. Therefore, they left no means and methods untried to eliminate him.

Emperor Kojong sent emissaries to the Second International Peace Conference held in 1907 to disclose the illegality and invalidity of the "Ulsa (1905) Five-point Treaty" and the injustice of Japan's colonial rule over Korea. Regarding it as a golden opportunity, the Japanese imperialists forcibly dethroned Emperor Kojong through threat and blackmail, pressure and cunning tricks.

Later, they put Sunjong on the throne and let Hirobumi Ito, resident-general of Korea, cook up the "Jongmi Seven-point Treaty".

The "treaty" required the feudal Korean government to go under the instructions of the resident-general of Japan in the policy issues and obtain his approval before revising law or making important administrative decisions. It also obliged the feudal Korean government to appoint any senior government official with the consent of the resident-general and to appoint Japanese nominated by the resident-general as a high-ranking government official.

After completely seizing the right to internal affairs of the feudal Korean government, ranging from the judicial, legislative and administrative affairs to the appointment of government officials by invoking the "Jongmi Seven-point Treaty", an illegal fraud document devoid of legitimacy, the Japanese imperialists had enforced barbarous colonial rule over Korea. -0-

Moreover in the words of comrade Kim Yo Jong  "The ROK side should be mindful that it will be forced to pay a price too much for it, as already warned, if such a provocation as violating the inalienable sovereignty of our state occurs again. "

This is very correct . The ROK should in the future refrain from any provocative act against the DPRK .
