Korean People's Day of Victory in War Celebrated
Pyongyang, August 4 (KCNA) -- A lecture was held in Tanzania, a joint meeting of political parties and organizations in India and a meeting, a seminar and film shows in Nigeria and Pakistan between July 24 and 27 to celebrate the 57th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War.

The chairman of the Tanzanian National Coordinating Committee of the Juche Idea Study Groups said in a lecture that in Korea the United States suffered a crushing defeat for the first time in its history by President Kim Il Sung's distinguished commanding art.

Speakers at the meeting in India said that July 27, 1953, is the day of victory when the DPRK defeated the U.S. imperialists and their allied forces in the three-year hard-fought Fatherland Liberation War thanks to the Juche-oriented military idea, strategy, matchless pluck and extraordinary commanding art of the President.

They stressed that the Korean people are now bolstering up the nuclear deterrent to cope with the escalating nuclear threat of the U.S. imperialists and reliably defending the fortress of socialism under the Songun politics of General Secretary Kim Jong Il.

Ahmed Blaza Lawan, chairman of the Nigerian Group for the Study of the Songun Politics, in his speech at a meeting expressed full support and solidarity with the Korean people in their struggle to smash the obstructive moves of the U.S. imperialists and their followers and open the gate to a great prosperous and powerful nation in 2012.

Javed Ansari, secretary general of the Society for the Study of Self-Reliance of Pakistan, stressed in his speech that the DPRK has the invincible army whose members have grown to be a-match-for-a-hundred combatants under the care of Kim Jong Il and strength of the unbreakable unity in one mind of the leader, the party and the masses and that its defence capability is tremendous.

Appreciated at the film shows were such Korean films as "Fireworks for a Thriving Nation."

A letter to Kim Jong Il was adopted at the seminar in Pakistan.
