They included a seminar and film show in Russia, a lecture in Brazil and a film show in Germany on May 22 and 23.

The participants in the film show watched "Fireworks for a Thriving Nation" and other Korean films.

Mishkin, chairman of the Nakhodka Regional Committee of Just Russia, said the DPRK has turned into a political and military power with tremendous military muscle under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.

The DPRK's Songun politics is the most just political mode that reliably protects the sovereignty and dignity of the country, he said, and went on:

The dear respected Kim Jong Un is faithfully carrying forward the cause of President Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

Aleksandr Neves Rosendo da Silva, chairman of the Brazilian Center for the Study of the Juche Idea, praised Kim Jong Il for glorifying the Juche idea, the revolutionary idea of Kim Il Sung, as the eternal guiding idea for the era of independence and laying an eternal foundation of socialist Korea through his tireless patriotic devotion.

He extended firm solidarity to the Korean people in their struggle for building a thriving nation, defending sovereignty and reunifying the country.
