DPRK Anniversaries Marked Abroad
Pyongyang, December 19 (KCNA) -- Personages of Bangladesh and Italy issued statements on Dec. 13 to mark the 19th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's gaining of the supreme commandership of the Korean People's Army and the 93rd birth anniversary of Kim Jong Suk, anti-Japanese war hero.

Hasanul Huq Inu, chairman of the Central Executive Committee of the Bangladesh National Socialist Party, said in a statement that the exploits performed by Kim Jong Suk for national liberation and the building of revolutionary armed forces of Juche type true to the Songun idea of President Kim Il Sung would shine long with the victorious advance of the KPA.

The KPA has grown to be invincible armed forces under the guidance of Supreme Commander Kim Jong Il, he said. "All victories won by the Korean army and people in showdown with the U.S. and socialist construction are a great encouragement to the progressive mankind."

Miriam Pelegrini Feri, president of the Group of Dialectical Materialists of Italy, said in a statement that the U.S. imperialists would not dare to provoke a new war in Korea. It is because the KPA which has grown to be an invincible army thanks to the Juche idea founded by Kim Il Sung and the Songun politics of Kim Jong Il is reliably defending the socialist gains and the sovereignty of the country, the president added.
