It goes on:

In order to protect global peace it is necessary for all countries and nations to firmly adhere to independence and resolutely oppose the imperialists' policy of strength.

If all countries and nations firmly adhere to independence and carry on a resolute struggle against the imperialists' policy of war, not toeing it, they will not be able to pursue a reckless war.

Songun serves as an important weapon for foiling the imperialists' policy of strength. This is proven by the history of the protracted anti-imperialist struggle of the Korean people.

The anti-imperialist independent countries are going ahead in the direction of attaching importance to military affairs to cope with the imperialists' policy of strength.

All the countries and nations in the world can avert a war and preserve peace only when they resolutely struggle against the above-said policy of strength.

Peace will settle in the world only when the peace-loving forces of the world including socialist countries stage bold joint actions to preserve peace.

The dynamic and indomitable struggle being waged by the DPRK under the uplifted banner of Songun and the anti-imperialist joint struggle in different regions of the world instill into mankind firm faith and optimism that it is possible to build a new world, free and peaceful.
