Day of Songun Marked in Germany
Pyongyang, August 25 (KCNA) -- A meeting took place in Germany on August 20 to mark the 56th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's start of the Songun revolutionary leadership (the Day of Songun).

Present there were officials and members of the German Communist Party and the German Group for the Study of Works of Comrade Kim Il Sung and Comrade Kim Jong Il.

The chairman of the German Communist Party in a speech said that Kim Jong Il built the DPRK into the invincible socialist power, put forward the Songun politics as the basic political mode under socialism and turned the DPRK into a military power and a people's paradise.

The great vitality and validity of the Songun politics have been clearly proved in the present reality, he said, and went on:

The U.S. and the West are making every possible effort to bring down the DPRK, the socialist bulwark, but the DPRK, a nuclear weapons state, will always emerge victorious.

We are firmly standing on the side of the Korean people and will positively support the DPRK in the future, too.

A congratulatory message to Marshal Kim Jong Un was adopted at the meeting.
