Russian Figure Praises DPRK

Pyongyang, July 11 (KCNA) -- Thanks to the wise leadership of Comrade Kim Jong Un and a large contingent of excellent youth trained by the great leaders, the DPRK will always shed light all over the world as a prosperous youth power with vigor of the youth. The director of the Arton Publishing House of Russia said this on June 26 at the ceremony of releasing respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un's work "The Paektusan Hero Youth Power Station Is a Proud and Grand Monument to Our Youth and a Symbol of Youth Power".

He referred to the fact that President Kim Il Sung viewed the issue of youth as an important one relating to the victory or defeat of the revolution from the period when he embarked upon the road of revolution, and put forward the idea and theory of the Juche-based youth movement.

He said that leader Kim Jong Il trained the youth to be the powerful vanguard of the revolution and reliable reserves of the Party.

The legendary stories of young heroes created during the building of Paektusan Hero Youth Power Station are inseparable from the leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, he said.

The WPK's policy of prioritizing the youth is developing on a new high stage under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, he added.
