Message of KFA UK Chairman Dr Dermot Hudson to the KFA Germany picket of the US consulate in Leipzig , Germany


Dear leadership members of KFA Germany
Dear comrades and friends,
On behalf of the Korean Friendship Association UK I send greetings and solidarity to your picket in Leipzig outside the US consulate .

This is the first time for many years that a picket against the US and in support of People’s Korea ,has been held in Germany.

Your picket is being held on the very day that US imperialism was defeated in the great Fatherland Liberation War and the day that is the end of the month of solidarity with the Korean people .

As respected Marshal KIM JONG UN said "Our July 27 is the second Day of Liberation when our people defended with honour their country's dignity and sovereignty from the brigandish aggression by the U.S. imperialists, and also the day of proud victors that put the U.S. imperialists, who were recklessly attempting to gain hegemony in the world and enslave it, on a downhill march towards ruin."

The picket is also being held at a time when the US imperialists are holding the RIMPAC exercises involving the armed forces of 29 different countries This year ,military exercises are staged by the US and south Korea and not just the US and south Korea but also Japan , Australia , UK , France , Thailand and Germany , against the DPRK .

The US imperialists, the ringleader of world imperialism and international reactionaries, provoked a war in Korea on the 25th of June 1950 by instigating their south Korean puppets to attack the young Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The US imperialists were hungry for profits and conquest. The US imperialists fought an unjust aggressive war against the Korean people. The US imperialists launched a war of conquest against the DPRK , a war to destroy the Juche-based people's democratic system in the DPRK as well as to destroy socialism in Asia and the world.


The Korean people led by the great revolutionary leader Marshal KIM IL SUNG, a true military strategic genius and ever-victorious iron-willed brilliant commander fought a fierce anti-imperialist, anti-US struggle against US imperialism and the allied forces of international reaction. It was a fierce class struggle against the enemies of the people. The Korean people fought a national liberation war against the Yankee imperialist invaders, a war of justice for independence and freedom and also a war to reunify the sacred motherland.

We condemn the appalling barbarity of the US imperialists during the Fatherland Liberation War . We denounce their crimes of massacring civilians, use of biological and chemical weapons. 35,383 people were murdered by the US at Sinchon -ri and 1,050 people at Susan-ri (one third of the population of the area), just to give a few examples. The US imperialists tried to exterminate the Korean people by carrying out the war that they long planned . History will curse forever the US imperialists as criminals as well as an enemy of humanity and progress. Indeed US imperialism is the ringleader of aggression and war. It is the US that is the biggest human rights violator in the world.

The US imperialists continue to occupy south Korea to this very day ,ignoring the will of the Korean people and the voices of world progressives. The US imperialists have committed crimes in south Korea too numerous to mention. They are exploiting the south Korean people by taking huge sums of money in so-called "upkeep expenses". The US imperialists have introduced anthrax into south Korea in order to commit genocide against the Korean nation. This is a horrendous crime. The US imperialists have also tried to stifle the DPRK using the "human rights " issue and used the UN against the DPRK."

Today People’s Korea is the most advanced socialist country with free housing , free health care , free education etc . It is vital to defend People’s Korea from US imperialism and world imperialism . I believe that your picket will make a contribution towards this goal.
