The Iranian Ilna said President Kim Il Sung was a man of spirit of attack with superb strategy and strong will and optimism by which he had never given in to any ordeals, adding:

The anti-Japanese armed struggle organized and led by him was an unprecedented hard-fought bloody war and the national-liberation struggle in a colony, which he led to victory believing in and relying on people's strength.

The Japanese invaders which boasted of "elite" run amuck with "punitive operation" only to suffer defeats.

The international community highly praises the exploits of the President who set a model of the national-liberation struggle in colonies.

The Nepalese internet magazine Nepal Today carried an article titled "President Kim Il Sung and national liberation".

The article said President Kim Il Sung was a commander without an equal in the world, who declared a war against the Japanese invaders and put forward the line of armed struggle with guerilla war as its main content.

The Juche-oriented line of the armed struggle was set forth by him at a time when there was neither proper theory nor experience about the national-liberation struggle in colonies. The line could be advanced only by him, a peerlessly great man.

Korea's liberation will shine forever in the history of national-liberation struggle in colonies as a great event that gave the Korean nation rebirth.

The Russian websites DPRK Today and Grifon Prestizh, too, carried articles titled "President Kim Il Sung's history of anti-Japanese war" and "The eternal exploits for Korea's liberation " to praise the feats of the President who freed the country from the Japanese imperialists.
