The DPRK was only two years old when the war broke out.

The war unleashed by the U.S. imperialists in the 1950s was very fierce. The young DPRK had to beat back the aggression by the imperialist allied forces, superior in the number of troops and military technology, in order to preserve the independence and sovereignty of the country and dignity of the nation. At the same time, it was the first confrontation of power between the anti-imperialist independent forces and the imperialist allied forces after the Second World War.

The world watched the DPRK, curious about its reaction to the invasion by the formidable imperialist allied forces and about the result of the war.

The President made a radio speech "Go All Out for Victory in the War" on June 26, Juche 39 (1950). He called on all the Party members, the whole country and all other people to go out for victory in the war, saying it was proved by human history that the people who wage a death-defying struggle for preserving their freedom and independence always emerge victorious and the victory would be in store for the Korean people.

Admiring the President's invincible faith and firm will and courage, the world was convinced of the inevitability of the Korean people's victory in the war.

The President dealt a series of heavy military blows to the U.S. imperialist aggressors boasting of "no defeat" with his outstanding military strategy, tactics and art of command at every stage of the war.

During the war the U.S. imperialists mobilized enormous military forces and economic power and employed all methods and means unprecedented in the world war history. But they suffered the most miserable defeat ever in history.

Under the wise leadership of the President, the Korean people won a historic victory in the war and the U.S. imperialists sustained a bitter defeat. This world-startling event was a military miracle in the 20th century and a great victory common to the world anti-imperialist independent forces.
