Regarding the anti-imperialist independence as its ideal and making it a fundamental principle not to join any bloc, the NAM has constantly enhanced its international influence under the positive support of the countries aspiring after independence over the past years.

The NAM has fulfilled its role as an anti-imperialist independent, anti-war peace-loving force despite of the dominationists' vicious obstructions and severe upheavals of history. Such proud course of its development is associated with the immortal feats of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il.

When the NAM was faced with trials due to the maneuvers of the imperialists and their followers tenaciously clinging to division and estrangement moves and military threat and blackmail, for fear of its strengthening influence in the international arena, Kim Il Sung clearly showed the road ahead of it with his scientific insight and far-sighted view.

As a revolutionary step, he saw to it that the DPRK joined the NAM and played a key role in its development, and wisely led the work for the NAM to further strengthen its cohesion and decisively smash the imperialists' maneuvers with its united strength.

In a critical period when even the existence of the NAM was in question owing to the rapid change in international situation, Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il guided the work for the NAM to strengthen its unity and always remain faithful to its mission.

Under the leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, the DPRK has destroyed the imperialists' high-handed and arbitrary practices and more vigorously struggled for independence, justice and peace, thus making a significant contribution to the vital advance of the NAM.

The DPRK, a dignified membership of the NAM, will as ever strive to resolutely oppose the aggression and dominationism and realize independence, peace and the international justice in coalition with all non-aligned countries.
