A Powerful and Prosperous State on Korean Soil

A. Mostov, Chairman of the Coordination Committee of the DPRK ISG

Dear representatives of the Committee for Cultural Relations Abroad,
Employees of the Korean Association of Social Scientists,
Leaders of all friendly organizations,

Dear Comrades!

As Chairman of the Coordination Committee of the DPRK ISG, I am glad to see you at the online meeting dedicated to the 75th Anniversary of the Founding of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Today, the respected comrade Kim Jong Un is comprehensively implementing the precepts of the Great Leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, who wanted to build a powerful and prosperous state on Korean soil. But the conservative gang of Yoon Suk Yeol, following the orders of the United States, once again endangers peace not only in the Korean region, but throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

The current situation obliges us today to recall the lessons of the history of the national liberation struggle of the Korean people, draw parallels with the events of our time and draw conclusions about what contribution to the common cause we can make on our own.

When the Korean War began, the survival of the DPRK seemed almost impossible: how can a small Republic defeat such a giant as the United States? But not just "survival" - the victory of the Korean people, achieved by the heroism and selflessness of the soldiers of the Korean People's Army, Chinese people's volunteers and Soviet pilots, became an important turning point in history, confirming the undeniable truth about the power of unanimity and solidarity.

However, the US did not learn from its defeat. On the contrary, over the past 70 years, having occupied the south of Korea and installed a puppet government on it, they were preparing for a new invasion. Since then, for 70 years, they have been conducting large-scale military exercises, such as "Freedom Shield", which simulates a full-scale war against the Republic, including "preemptive strikes" on nuclear and missile facilities, the "seizure of Pyongyang" and the "liquidation of the leadership." Moreover, now the US are planning to once again place, under one pretext or another, their nuclear weapons on the territory of South Korea, which, of course, will pose a direct threat not only to the DPRK, but also to Russia and China.

History has shown that all attempts to conclude a fair deal with the United States, whether it be the 1994 US-DPRK Framework Agreement, the inter-Korean agreements, or agreements with Trump during the last period of improvement in relations, only lead to the fact that the enemy buys time and then abandons his promises under the pretext of a “new deal” after a change of administration in the United States or South Korea. This is truly absurd, and in this connection, it must be remembered that all concessions, all “goodwill gestures” made to US or its satellites, lead to only one of two scenarios: occupation, as happened with Iraq, or enslavement, as happened with Ukraine.

In such a difficult situation, dear comrades, we should actively cooperate with scientists and public figures who can spread truthful information about the DPRK. It is our duty to strengthen the movement of international solidarity with the DPRK and do our best to frustrate the US propaganda campaign aimed at dehumanizing the DPRK in the eyes of the world community.

Thank you.
