Misery of Jumping into Fire with Brushwood on Back Awaits: KCNA Commentary


Pyongyang, November 30 (KCNA) -- The Yoon Suk Yeol group of traitors in the region of south Korean puppets is getting more frantic in its moves to ignite a war against the DPRK.


It conducted a joint naval drill with its U.S. and Japanese masters on November 26 by introducing the U.S. nuclear carrier Carl Vinson under the pretext of “coping with the north's bolstering up its nuclear and missile capabilities”. And then it simultaneously launched an anti-infiltration combined drill and a “Ssangmae drill" with the U.S. air force.


The south Korean puppets, who have run amuck in the moves for getting versed in a preemptive attack to stifle the DPRK in collusion with outside forces all the year round, are behaving like a guilty party filing the suit first, persistently talking about “threats” from someone. This is the height of shamelessness.


Traitor Yoon Suk Yeol has been rejected by the public from the first days of his "assumption" since he evoked sneers and astonishment from the world people for his ignorance and benightedness. The "way out" found by the traitor was to turn out in the execution of the U.S. strategy for hegemony as a vanguard and shock brigade surpassing the successive puppet rulers.


Last year alone, the puppet group of traitors, with the backing of the U.S., staged more than 250 rounds of various military exercises aimed at a “preemptive attack” on the DPRK. This year it has made the biggest "contribution" to drastically expanding and intensifying the scale and degree of the anti-DPRK confrontation moves.


During his visit to the U.S., traitor Yoon, who adopted a policy for heinous confrontation with the DPRK as a core of the “security strategy”, played a “key role” as a chain link in concretizing, planning and formulating a nuclear war provocation in the Korean peninsula by agreeing to regularly deploy the U.S. nuclear strategic assets and annually stage the tripartite combined military exercises with the U.S. and Japanese masters.


Consequently, such nuclear strike means as the U.S. nuclear strategic bombers and nuclear aircraft carriers are being deployed in the region of south Korean puppets one after another and nuclear war drills targeting the DPRK have been staged in the sky, land and sea on the largest and longest scale ever in history.


What should not be overlooked is the fact that the puppets, who drove the situation of the Korean peninsula to the worst state through sycophantic and treacherous collusion with outsiders, are trying to play a "leading role" while persistently resorting to dangerous military provocations.


It is well evidenced by the reckless moves of the puppet group of traitors that cooked up the nullification of some articles of the north-south military agreement some days ago, pulling up the DPRK over its launch of a reconnaissance satellite pertaining to its legitimate right to self-defense.


A sinister intention lurks behind the group's reckless act of pulling out the last “security ring” by itself by working out such clumsy “measure” as the nullification for "response" to the DPRK's launch of reconnaissance satellite, a step contrary to logic and reason.


Brought to the court of judgment by the candlelight demonstrators enraged at its submission to outsiders and unpopular rule, the puppet group of traitors urgently needed a way out for prolonging its political remaining days and pleasing its masters.


Whenever the conservative group in the region of south Korean puppets is driven into "ruling" crisis, it makes desperate efforts to find a way out in the anti-DPRK moves, crying out for "security uneasiness" and "threat" from someone. This is the trite method employed by the conservative group.


The DPRK Ministry of National Defence resolutely declared, in a statement on November 23 lashing out at the reckless action of the puppet group of traitors, that the Korean People's Army would be no longer bound to the north-south military agreement but withdraw the military steps, taken to prevent military tension and conflict in all spheres including ground, sea and air, and deploy more powerful armed forces and new-type military hardware in the area along the Military Demarcation Line.


No one can know what misfortune the last-ditch efforts by the group of rabid dogs running amuck, seized with an extreme megalomania while regarding its masters as heaven, will bring to the region of south Korean puppets anytime.


It is clear that such miserable consequences as jumping into fire with brushwood on back will reach the puppet group of traitors. -0-

2023, A Year of Celebrations!- speech of Martin Lotscher-president ot the Swiss Organizing Committee of the International Festival in Praise of the Great Persons of Mt. Paektu and of the Swiss Korea Committee (KFA Switzerland),

 2023, A Year of Celebrations!




Speech for the KFA International Meeting, Barcelona (Spain), November 25, 2023



The year 2023 which will soon reach its final stage is a festive and glorious year of great celebrations!


On July 27, the 70th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War (FLW) was celebrated.


On September 9, we celebrated the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK).


The Korean people is full of national pride by celebrating these historic anniversaries.


And we as friends, comrades and defenders of socialist Korea are also full of happiness and joy together with the beloved Korean people.


The Korean people's historic victory in the FLW was the shining result of the great Leader Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG's wise Juche-based military tactics and strategy and the Songun (military first) leadership and commandership.


With his unparalleled Songun leadership the great Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG, the always victorious iron-willed Supreme Commander of Mt. Paektu, guided the heroic Korean People's Army (KPA) and the Korean people to victory.


The still young DPRK was the first nation on earth which won a military victory over the United States, the self-styled and arrogant "only super power".


This demonstrates the fact that also a small country which is guided by a great man who loves the nation and the people and who is loved by the nation and the people, is able to force a military power to its knees.


The Korean people can be proud of having won glorious victories over two imperialist powers in one generation - Japan and the US.


The victory in the FLW encouraged the peoples in Asia and Africa which were still fighting for their own liberation and freedom.


In the same year the Korean people celebrated the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the DPR of Korea.


The great Leader President KIM IL SUNG made the noblest gift to the Korean people with the building of the DPRK, the first free, independent and democratic state of the Korean nation.


Under the wise and resolute leadership of President KIM IL SUNG, Chairman KIM JONG IL and the respected Supreme Leader Comrade KIM JONG UN the DPRK was built as a militarily, ideologically and economically strong socialist state.


And with the Juche idea and with benevolent leadership, the great men made of socialist Korea  the people's paradise in which health care, education and housing are free and the taxes are abolished.


The great men's motto The People is God made of the DPRK the real people's fairy -land in the last more than seven decades.


Thanks to its people-centered policy, the DPRK remained stable and invincible like a rock in the storm when other socialist countries collapsed one after the other.


The DPRK is the bulwark of world socialism! It became a space nation and a nuclear weapon state. Its nuclear strategy of deterrence is integrated into the Socialist Constitution.


The DPRK is the first state which characterized itself constitutionally as a nuclear weapon state.


The DPRK's military muscles of nuclear deterrence are the invincible shield of protection of national sovereignty and territorial integrity and will smash all war provocations of the US imperialists.


The Korean people can be proud of the wonderful year of 2023, a glorious year of great celebrations!



Glory to the 70th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War and to the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea!

president ot the Swiss Organizing Committee of the International Festival in Praise of the Great Persons of Mt. Paektu and of the Swiss Korea Committee (KFA Switzerland),

"2023, A Year of Celebrations for People’s Korea and the world progressive people" speech of Dr Dermot Hudson KFA UK Chairman to the KFA International Meeting 25.11.2023

 "2023, A Year of Celebrations for People’s Korea and the world progressive people “.

Dear esteemed great comrade Alejandro Cao De Benos, KFA President 

Dear delegates, officials, activists and members of KFA 

Dear comrades and friends

This year ,2023 or Juche 112, has been another year of great victories for People’s Korea. It has been also a year of significant and meaningful celebrations for the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), the land of Juche. This year the DPRK celebrated the 75th anniversary of its foundation as well as the 70th anniversary of the victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War against the Yankee imperialist aggressors and the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the standing regular revolutionary armed force of People’s Korea, the Korean People’s Army.


The 75th anniversary of the DPRK on September 9th this year was an event of tremendous significance not just for the people of the DPRK but for the world progressive and revolutionary people. The DPRK is the only socialist state in the world to have celebrated its 75th founding anniversary. Others that were proclaimed to be ‘ideal models of socialism’ by some fell by the wayside. Various prophets of doom of the mainstream media and bourgeois academia and even some so-called communists predicted the ‘collapse’ of the DPRK not just once but many times but the DPRK celebrated its 50th anniversary, then 55th anniversary , 60th anniversary , 65th anniversary , 70th anniversary and now its 75th anniversary proving the cynics and doom-mongers totally wrong.


 The fact that the DPRK was able to celebrate its 75th anniversary is due to the outstanding and brilliant leadership over many decades of the great leaders President KIM IL SUNG and Chairman KIM JONG IL, which is today continued by respected Marshal KIM JONG UN. The leaders of the People’s Korea successfully applied the Juche Idea and Songun idea and roused the people to create miracles in the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance.

It was fantastic to watch on Youtube the parade of the Worker-Peasant Red Guard of the DPRK for the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the DPRK. The parade demonstrated the single-hearted unity of the DPRK and the fact the DPRK is a true people-oriented state.


Our Korean Friendship Association of the UK (KFA UK) despite limited resources and unfavourable conditions together with other KFA branches in Europe and beyond played its part in the celebrations of the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the DPRK by holding the European Regional Forum for Solidarity, Friendship and Exchange with the Korean people over 2 weekends in September. We are grateful to comrade Alejandro Cao De Benos for his assistance and also other KFA branches in Europe with special mention of KFA Germany for their assistance to us on the 2nd of September.


The past year also saw the 70th anniversary of the victory of Korean people in the great Fatherland Liberation War against the US imperialist aggressors .The victory in the Fatherland Liberation War against the Yankee imperialists was a great victory achieved under the outstanding leadership and brilliant commanding art of great generalissimo KIM IL SUNG .It showed that a small country if it establishes Juche can defeat a big country .Today under the leadership of respected Marshal KIM JONG UN the DPRK is maintaining a militant anti-US ,anti-imperialist line and carrying the showdown with US imperialism to its final conclusion.


The Korean People’s Army which defeated the US imperialists in the 1950s celebrated its 75th anniversary of its foundation as a regular revolutionary armed force in February. A splendid and magnificent parade marked the occasion.

It is very significant that each of the three keynote anniversaries of the DPRK this year were celebrated with big military parades. The DPRK is probably the only country in the world to have three big military parades within the time frame of ten months. This shows the strength and resilience of the Juche-based, advanced people-centred socialist system of the DPRK. The liars and brainwashers of the imperialist mainstream media claim that the DPRK has ‘famine ‘and ‘starvation ‘but if this was even half true the DPRK would have not been able to hold such impressive military parades.


2023 or Juche 112 has been a year of great celebrations for the DPRK. Let us redouble our efforts to defend People’s Korea with No Ifs or Buts! 

Long Live People’s Korea!

Long live Juche!

Long live respected Marshal KIM JONG UN!

Inequality Veiled in “Prosperity” and “Welfare”
2023.11.30.
Social inequality is an inevitable outcome of the capitalist society which is chronic and can’t be reduced.

On November 14, a French charity released an annual report to the effect that the crisis of living cost in its country has accelerated the “poverty of women” and that women and children are the main victims of poverty worsened due to price hikes, childcare, gender inequality and so on.

The report said that a lot of women are refusing to take the meal and submitting to other severe mental and physical pain to eke out their living and bring up children. Due to the family breakdown and continuous gender inequality in the labor market, poverty rate of women reached 57.5% last year. This is a substantial increase from 52% in 2012.

Women are entitled to social care and protection and children are the future of the country. But they are in the grip of deep uneasiness and pains as they fall victim to economic crisis and inequality. This is the reality of the capitalist countries.

No matter how the Western mouthpieces try to embellish capitalism by employing such florid words as “prosperity”, “welfare” and “human rights”, its true colors can never be covered up.

The capitalist society fails to ensure that women and children are provided with their rights to existence and equality, to say nothing of fundamental rights of a social human being including rights to development, dignity and honor. Such a society is tantamount to a living hell.

Statement by Kim Yo Jong, Vice Department Director of C.C., WPK


Pyongyang, November 30 (KCNA) -- Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, released the following statement on Wednesday:


I deplore the fact that the UNSC, at which the purpose and principle of the UN Charter have to be strictly respected, is being turned into a land of lawlessness where the sovereignty of independent states is wantonly violated, extreme double standards are imprudently applied and injustice and high-handed practices are rampant due to the U.S. and some forces following it, and strongly denounce and reject it.


The whole course of the open meeting of the UNSC over the DPRK's reconnaissance satellite launch, convened at the gangster-like demand of the U.S. and its followers, clearly proves how weak, false and absurd are the unreasonable arguments of some UN member states denying the DPRK's sovereign rights.


I took heed to the trivial explanation of Thomas Greenfield, U.S. representative to the United Nations, who described the U.S. as a "victim" of the present situation while illustrating their stand for "meaningful dialogue" and efforts for "peaceful solution", out of the lack of justifiable ground for branding the irrefragable DPRK's right to space development as "illegal".


However, she should, first, have had to clarify from where and why the strategic targets have frequently appeared at south Korea's ports only 500 to 600 km away from Pyongyang, before vouching that the U.S. weapons did not target the DPRK.


The Pentagon should also have helped its representative to UN to make a more logical excuse for how the U.S. stand for "diplomatic engagement" and its efforts to "resume dialogue" blend with the provocative military activities of the U.S. nuclear carrier and nuclear submarine deployed in the Korean peninsula.


The double-faced stand and behavior of the U.S. whose deeds are quite different from its words are a vicious factor disturbing peace and stability in the region of the Korean peninsula along with double standards, the height of high-handed and arbitrary practices.


It is the consistent stand of the DPRK against the U.S. that the former should be ready for both dialogue and confrontation and, in particular, more thoroughly ready for confrontation if the "peace by power" favored by the latter is to rely on muscle-flexing behind the rhetoric about dialogue.


We make it clear once again to the U.S. which asked the DPRK to fix the time and agenda for resuming the DPRK-U.S. dialogue.


The sovereignty of an independent state can never be an agenda item for negotiations, and therefore, the DPRK will never sit face to face with the U.S. for that purpose.


The main threat to international peace and security does not come from the exercise of the DPRK's sovereign right but from the U.S. high-handed and arbitrary practices to disturb and oppress it.


The DPRK will continue to make efforts to develop everything belonging to its sovereign rights and continue to exercise the sovereign rights, enjoyed by all the member states of the UN, in a dignified manner without being restricted in the future, too. -0-

The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK (ASSPUK),the British Group for the Study of the  Juche Idea  (BGSJI), the  Korean Friendship Association of the UK( KFA UK) and British Solidarity Committee for Peace and Reunification (BSCPRKP)  today issued a joint statement supporting the press statement of  comrade Kim Son Gyong, vice-minister for International Organizations of the Foreign Ministry(FM) of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) that was made on Monday 27th of November;

As is very well known the DPRK successfully launched into orbit the Malligyong-1 military reconnaissance satellite on the 21st of November 2023. Really the DPRK should have been congratulated by the international community for the great advances that it is making in space technology . However 10 countries including the US and UK that are members of the UN Security Council (UNSC ) issued a so-called 'joint statement ' condemning the DPRK and accusing it of breaking international law etc . All the countries that signed the statement are puppets , lackeys and vassals of the US who have no objectivity and just do what the US tells them to do .

Comrade Kim Son Gyong the vice foreign minister for International Organisation of the DPRK FM in his press statement  points out that "The DPRK's reconnaissance satellite launch is a legitimate and just exercise of the right to self-defense aimed at correctly seeing through and thoroughly coping with the grave military moves of the U.S. and its followers, which are becoming more undisguised in their aggressive nature."

The 10 countries of the UNSC that signed the joint statement claim that the DPRK's military reconnaissance satellite is a threat to them . However they do not see the US's deployment of nuclear bombers and submarines on the Korean peninsula as a threat to the DPRK . This is the height of hypocrisy ,

As to the argument that the DPRK used a 'ballistic missile ' to launch the satellite  , this is absurd because how else would a satellite be launched . Some of the countries that condemned the DPRK have launched satellites using ballistic missile technology and some of them have ICBM programmes . So they should not take issue with the DPRK over the launch of the Malligyong 1 .

Comrade Kim Son Gyong declares that the DPRK will continue along the path that it has chosen saying that "No matter what critical statements and harshest-ever sanctions the U.S. and its vassal forces may issue or impose, they can neither check the DPRK's exercise of its sovereign rights nor get what they want."

We support the will of the DPRK to continue to exercise its independent rights including launching more satellites.

No one can block the advance of the DPRK.

American-style Gangster-like Doctrine Does Not Work on Korean Peninsula: KCNA Commentary


Pyongyang, November 25 (KCNA) -- The U.S. is getting more frantic in its moves to sell ultra-modern weapons to the south Korean puppets than ever before.


Recently it decided to deliver to the puppet forces various kinds of ultra-modern lethal hardware of astronomical value, including 25 F-35 stealth fighters, 36 SM-6 ship-to-air interceptors and 42 AIM-9X Sidewinder air-to-air missiles.


Not content with this, the U.S. concluded a "security of supply arrangement" with the puppet military, aimed at rapidly providing war supplies, and thus seized the legal chain of holding the puppet forces more tightly under its military control and making them sacrifice for its unlimited greed.


It is well known to the world that the U.S. created disputes and hotspots in different parts of the world and massively introduced various kinds of lethal hardware to stack up blood-stained money.


However, the U.S. export of weapons to the puppet forces is not just for greedy and monetary purposes.


It is the sinister intention of the U.S. to arm the puppet forces with modern lethal weapons and use them as a shock brigade for carrying out its strategy against the DPRK and, furthermore, the U.S.-led "Indo-Pacific strategy" and thus hold military hegemony in the region and the rest of the world.


The fact that the weapons to be given to the puppet forces are offensive military hardware with a range far beyond the scope of the Korean peninsula in terms of operational and tactical characteristics highlights the aim sought by the U.S.


The U.S. has shown its card of selling ultra-modern weapons to the puppet forces, although it is in weak position due to the enormous assistance to the proxy wars in Europe and the Middle East. The aim sought by the U.S. is to ignite a new worldwide arms race with the Korean peninsula as a base and make the "rivals" including neighboring countries exhausted and thus maintain the collapsing "Unipolar World" at any cost.


After all, the U.S. sold its lethal equipment to gain a handsome profit and, at the same time, got a "running dog" to protect its "security", killing two birds with one stone.


In retrospect, the U.S. has "boasted" that even a bomb has not dropped on its land, although it made a big fortune in return for its crimes of destroying peace and security in different parts of the world.


But the U.S.-style gangster-like doctrine that the blood of others is its own money and doing harm to others leads to its "security" can never work on the Korean peninsula.


The U.S. and the puppet forces' farce of dealing in ultra-modern military hardware to turn the puppet region into the largest arsenal will only accelerate the DPRK's modernization of its strong army thousand times faster.


It is a fait accompli that a small spark on the Korean peninsula would lead to global thermonuclear war.


No one can vouch that the consequences will end up only by giving shame to the U.S. "pride".


The U.S. had better ponder over the catastrophic consequences to be entailed by the arms offer to the puppet forces. -0-

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Visits NATA Pyongyang General Control Center Again to Watch Aerospace Photos of Enemy's Major Target Region Taken on Morning of November 25


Pyongyang, November 25 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), visited the Pyongyang General Control Center of the National Aerospace Technology Administration (NATA) again on the morning of November 25 and watched the photos of major target areas in the enemy region, including Jinhae, Pusan, Ulsan, Phohang, Taegu and Kangrung, taken by the reconnaissance satellite from 09:59:40 to 10:02:10 a.m.


The photo taken by the reconnaissance satellite at 10:01:10 shows the U.S. Navy nuclear carrier Carl Vinson, which is anchored at the military port in Ryongho-dong, Nam-gu of Pusan City.


He also saw the photos of a naval base in the Pearl Harbor, the Hickam air-force base in Honolulu and other objects, taken by the reconnaissance satellite while passing over Hawaii of the U.S. at 05:13:22 a.m. on Nov. 25 in Pyongyang time.


The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un praised the staff of the NATA for successfully conducting in a responsible manner the fine-tuning process of the reconnaissance satellite which nears its formal start on reconnaissance mission and encouraged them.

Press Statement of Vice-Minister for Int'l Organizations of DPRK Foreign Ministry


Pyongyang, November 27 (KCNA) -- Kim Son Gyong, vice-minister for International Organizations of the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), issued the following press statement on Monday:


The reason why the UN Security Council fails to fulfill its important duty to ensure global peace and security and get rid of its malfunction can be clearly seen in the "joint statement of 10 countries" issued by the U.S. and its followers.


The "joint statement," signed by some permanent member states of the UNSC gripped by extreme prejudice and double-standards and some UN member states accustomed to blindly follow the U.S. instruction instead of considering whether it is right or wrong, is nothing but a conspiratorial document without any effect in the light of international law and political influence.


The DPRK's reconnaissance satellite launch is a legitimate and just exercise of the right to self-defense aimed at correctly seeing through and thoroughly coping with the grave military moves of the U.S. and its followers, which are becoming more undisguised in their aggressive nature.


If the reconnaissance satellite "Malligyong-1" brought to space is a "threat" to the signatories of the "joint statement", are the nuclear carriers, nuclear strategic submarines and nuclear strategic bombers deployed on the doorstep of the DPRK by the U.S. 30-odd times this year "apostles of friendship and peace"?


Do the "ten countries", which accused the DPRK of using ballistic missile technology in launching the satellite, launch their satellites by rubber balloon or null gravity, not by a carrier rocket using the same technology as ballistic missile?


Such brigandish idea of the U.S. and its vassal forces that the DPRK is not allowed to exercise its due right to space exploration, a right belonging to all UN member states, is a typical expression of the most hideous and brazen-faced violation of sovereignty that denies the justification of the existence of the DPRK, before being the mere issue of partiality and double-standards.


Our stand is clear.


The U.S. finds its main interest and hobby in encroaching upon the sovereign rights of independent countries through high-handed practice and threat, but what the DPRK is interested in is its full exercise of the universal sovereign rights common to all countries like satellite launch.


No matter what critical statements and harshest-ever sanctions the U.S. and its vassal forces may issue or impose, they can neither check the DPRK's exercise of its sovereign rights nor get what they want.


To make it crystal-clear that the U.S. and the West's outrageous and illegal interference in the internal affairs of independent sovereign countries and employment of double-standards against them can never work, the DPRK will squarely, unhesitatingly and perfectly exercise its sovereign rights including satellite launch, and this will contribute to the establishment of a just and equal new international order.


If the U.S. and its vassal forces again seek to violate the sovereignty of the DPRK under the pretext of the utterly unlawful "resolution" of the UNSC, they will be held wholly accountable for any consequences to be entailed by it. -0-
