DPRK's Sovereignty Invariably Defended
Pyongyang, December 18 (KCNA) -- The DPRK has invariably advanced along the road of independence, Songun (military-first) and socialism for the past three years since the demise of leader Kim Jong Il.

When the Korean people suffered a great national loss on December 17, Juche 100 (2011), the U.S. and its followers desperately attempted to dismantle the DPRK's nuclear weapons and topple its regime, clamoring about "change of social system" in it.

In a bid to pull down the fortress of socialism in the East, the U.S. deployed in south Korea vast means for preemptive nuclear attack and staged mad-cap joint military drills with its puppet forces, driving the situation of the Korean Peninsula to the brink of a war.

Under such situation, Marshal Kim Jong Un provided a sure guarantee, through his distinguished and energetic Songun leadership, to defend the sovereignty of the DPRK and win the final victory in showdown with the U.S.

He built up the Korean People's Army into a powerful elite revolutionary army and put the army-people unity on a higher stage.

Always finding himself in the frontline areas, he worked hard to train all the servicepersons into master-hands at modern warfare. And he even went to the biggest hotspots, indicating operational tactics to frustrate the enemy's scheme for aggression.

His Songun leadership further cemented the politico-ideological position of the DPRK and its position as a satellite-launching state and a nuclear weapons state, thus bringing a radical change to the world political structure and correlation of forces around the Korean Peninsula.

Now the DPRK people absolutely trust Kim Jong Un making a brilliant history of defending the country's sovereignty under the banner of Songun and bringing about the rosy future of national prosperity. Under his guidance, they will surely build a great prosperous and powerful nation.
