The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK(ASSPUK), the Juche Idea Study Group of England(JISGE) and the UK Korean Friendship Association(UK KFA) today issued a joint statement of the 56th anniversary of the April popular uprising in south Korea.
                              

It was 56 years on the 19th of April that the south Korean people rose up against the Syngham Rhee puppet regime eventually toppling it .

The April popular uprising was an explosion of the peoples wrath against Syngham Rhee and against the colonial rule of the US in south Korea.It was an anti-US anti- fascist struggle as well as a struggle for the independent reunification of Korea.   As the great leader President KIM IL SUNG said

"The massive Popular Uprising in April 1960, in which the student youth of south Korea played the central role, overthrew the puppet government of Syngman Rhee, an old minion of US imperialism. This was an initial victory in the south Korean people’s struggle, and it dealt a heavy blow to the colonial rule of US imperialism.

The collapse of the puppet Syngman Rhee government signified, above all, the bankruptcy of all its anti-popular policies and its notorious “march north” outcry.

In their heroic struggle the people of south Korea demonstrated the revolutionary mettle of the Korean people, gained valuable experience id lessons and were greatly awakened politically.

After the April Popular Uprising, the situation in south Korea rapidly developed in favour of the revolution, and the masses became ore courageous to fight against US imperialism and its lackeys, for the dependent, peaceful reunification of the country"

The April Popular Uprising was a great anti-fascist , anti -imperialist uprising that opened a new chapter in the  history   of the struggle of the south Korean people for independence, democracy and reunification. It showed that  the 'peaceful road' to change is but an illusion and that only by a violent uprising can the popular masses liberate themselves and achieve independence.
    The April Popular Uprising was a great inspiration to the peoples of Asia in their liberation struggle and also to national liberation struggles throughout the world.            
We(UK KFA,ASSPUK and JISGE) solemnly remember those who died in the struggle and pay a high tribute to their memory.The spirit of the April Popular uprisers is still alive today.
   Today south Korea is still ruled by a corrupt dictatorship . In south Korea  the richer get ever richer and the poorer ever poorer and  fascist puppet rule and US imperialist troops still remain in south Korea 50 years after the April popular uprising.Let there be a 2nd  ,a 3rd and a 4th April Popular uprising in south Korea to overthrow the Park Keun Hye puppet fascist regime and drive US troops into the sea !
   We support the struggle of the Anti- Imperialist National Democratic Front of south Korea and south Korean revolutionaries to realise the democraticisation of south Korea ,independence and  reunification.
LONG LIVE THE MEMORY OF THE APRIL POPULAR UP-RISERS !
