Martin Lotscher, chairman of the Switzerland-Korea Committee, said Kim Jong Il made undying contributions to the cause of reunifying the country independently free from outsiders' interference by providing the June 15 North-South Joint Declaration and the October 4 declaration, true to the behest of President Kim Il Sung.

The chairman of the Anti-Imperialist Forum of Germany said:

Kim Jong Il made a ceaseless journey to meet the people and servicepersons throughout the country.

His forced march for field guidance shows how warm his loving care for the people and servicepersons was.

A message to Marshal Kim Jong Un was adopted at the remembrance meeting in Switzerland.
