The October 10th military parade proves the great superiority of the Juche -based socialist system of People's Korea -special article by Dr Dermot Hudson

                                                                  


The October 10th  military parade ,in People's Korea to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Workers' Party of Korea was simply amazing  ,  totally out of this world . Military parades in People's Korea are always very good , , it is something that the DPRK always does well . I have attended military parades in the DPRK in 2012 , 2013 , 2015 , 2017 and 2018 . Parades in the DPRK are bright , cheerful colourful and militant in contrast to the tired and grey military parades in the former revisionist led socialist countries . They demonstrate the single-hearted unity of the masses around the Party and the leader as well powerfully displaying the discipline and stamina of the revolutionary armed forces of Juche .

The October 10th military was held in the presence of dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN who said in his speech to the parade '"The fact that we have defended all our people from the harmful epidemic disease sweeping the whole world can be said to be a natural duty and success of our Party. However, I am moved by this success, and as I see their healthy appearance, I can find no word other than thanks.". These are very profound words that prove that Marshal KIM JONG UN is a true people's leader . Moreover it stressed that that the DPRK is the only country in the world free from Covid 19 . This is  a great achievement . Covid 19 is sweeping the world  not just killing people but disrupting economies and depriving people of livelihoods . The death toll from Covid 19 now exceeds that of the flu pandemic in the 1960s, In the UK recently the number of new cases of Covid 19 per day nearly reached 20,000 .The fact that the DPRK has no Covid 19 cases is a testament to the superiority of its socialist system  and the correctness of the leadership of respected Marshal KIM JONG UN and the Workers' Party of Korea.

                                                                   


 

Only People's Korea guided by Juche was able to hold such a large-scale parade at the time of the worldwide pandemic . Moreover People's Korea in the grip of the stranglehold of the reactionary imperialist sanctions . Since 2016 the UN Security Council have imposed 5 rounds of sanctions and also the US , EU and Britain have imposed sanctions on People's Korea . On top of the sanctions imposed by the imperialist hostile forces on People's Korea , the country suffered severe natural disasters such as flood and typhoon .If other countries faced the same situation of the DPRK they would not have been able hold such a magnificent and grand parade . The DPRK recovered from the flood and typhoon damage in double quick time and by its own efforts , without outside aid , in the spirit of self-reliance .

                                                


The parade itself had a number of striking features different to previous DPRK military parades . Firstly , it was held at midnight  . This is something quite unprecedented . I have attended five military parades in the DPRK but they have always been during the daytime , usually in the morning , occasionally in the afternoon .This time was different , it was the parade was held before dawn , This shows the strong discipline and devotion to duty of the officers and soldiers of the Korean People's Army . The imperialists like to say that there is no electricity in the DPRK but the parade was bathed in the light of powerful floodlights . Secondly , a fine array of state of the art weaponry was displayed  including a giant Intercontinental  Ballistic Missile that looked far bigger than the old Soviet ICBMs . The DPRK was not being sweet-talked by the imperialists into unilateral disarmament or the so-called 'Libyan model ' . The DPRK is not soft like the revisionist former Soviet Union . At the same time it was stressed by Marshal KIM JONG UN that the DPRK's nuclear deterrent is after all a nuclear deterrent and will not be used for a pre-emptive strike . Thus the DPRK's mighty Hwasong 16 is an ICBM for peace , an ICBM for independence .

                                     


What the grand parade proved is the total superiority and invincibility of the people-centred  socialist system based on Juche. The imperialists do not understand Juche and self-reliance . Their sanctions will always fail due to the might of self-reliance . The October 10th parade provided graphic evidence of this .

Long live the Workers' Party of Korea !


Long live People's Korea !

Long live respected Marshal KIM JONG UN !
