Round-table talks and film show were held in Russia and a meeting and photo exhibition, film show and art performance in UK from July 26 to 29.

Gromov, first secretary of the Khabarovsk Territorial Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, said:

President Kim Il Sung was a great man who was deeply revered by all people. It was thanks to the distinguished leader that the Korean people won victory not only in the three-year-long Fatherland Liberation War but in the whole course of socialist construction, firmly defended their ideology and social system and reliably protected the sovereignty and dignity of the country.

Leader Kim Jong Il published famous works when world socialism was in a crisis, instilling the conviction of victory into progressive mankind. He formulated the Songun politics as the basic mode of politics under socialism and bolstered up the national power of the DPRK in every way.

Supreme leader Kim Jong Un, creditable successor to the cause of the preceding leaders, clearly indicated the way to be followed by the DPRK despite the imperialists' moves to stifle the DPRK and provided a sure guarantee for defending the peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and in the rest of the world.

S. G. Prokopiyev, general manager of a company of Russia, and other personages praised Kim Il Sung as outstanding strategist and great statesman.

Korea has not yet been reunified due to the U.S., they said, hoping the hard-working Korean people will reunify the country at an early date and lead a peaceful and happy life.

Zane Carpenter, general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist), said that the Korean people shattered the myth of the U.S. imperialists' "mightiness" for the first time in history, greatly contributing to world peace and the cause of socialism.
