Pyongyang, March 29 (KCNA) -- A Russian national seminar on the Juche idea "Patriotism and Self-Reliance" took place in Sankt-Peterburg on March 20 on the occasion of the 107th birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung.

Seen in the venue of the seminar were photos dealing with the revolutionary exploits of the peerlessly great men.

On display there were works of President Kim Il Sung, Chairman Kim Jong Il and Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and books and photos introducing the successes made by the Korean people in socialist construction.

The general secretary of the International Alliance of Societies for the Study of the Juche Idea and Songun Policy in East European and Central Asian Regions said in his keynote report that Kim Il Sung, who waged an arduous anti-Japanese armed struggle to liberate Korea, is the peerlessly great man who made a great contribution to accomplishing the cause of global independence.

He said that Kim Jong Un formulated the patriotic idea and exploits of Kim Jong Il as Kim Jong Il's patriotism.

Speakers including the chairwoman of the Kim Jong Suk Women's Union of Russia and the chairman of the Russian Association for the Study of the Juche Idea noted that Kim Il Sung turned the DPRK into a socialist country independent in politics, self-supporting in economy and self-reliant in national defense in a brief span of time.

They lauded Kim Jong Il for his Songun leadership exploits and stressed that he is always alive in the hearts of the Korean people as the brilliant model of genuine patriotism.

They said that the DPRK under the tested guidance of Kim Jong Un is firmly adhering to its own development principle provided by the preceding leaders and fully demonstrating the might of self-reliance.
