Pyongyang, August 2 (KCNA) -- Fayez Ismail, general secretary of the Socialist Unionist Party of Syria, issued a statement on July 27, the 60th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War.

The statement said:

July 27, 1953 was the day when the Korean people inflicted a heavy defeat upon the U.S. imperialists for the first time in history and won in the war.

The DPRK had smashed the U.S. moves for aggression in the post-war period, too, under the leadership of President Kim Il Sung, adding shine to its tradition of invincibility.

It is making a great history by inflicting defeat upon the U.S. imperialists.

The U.S. dares not provoke the DPRK.

It is a great country holding peerlessly great persons in high esteem.

The heroic Korean people trained by Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il will always glorify the history of victory.

The Korean people's struggle to achieve greater victory and prosperity under the wise leadership of the dear respected Kim Jong Un is commanding full support and solidarity of the world progressive people including the Syrian people.
