Day of Shining Star Marked by Russian Media
Pyongyang, March 1 (KCNA) -- Russian media carried special write-ups on the occasion of the birth anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il (the Day of the Shining Star).

The paper Veteran No. 6 carried an article titled "Defender of independence" accompanied with photos documenting revolutionary activities of Marshal Kim Jong Un and a picture of satellite Kwangmyongsong 3-2 soaring to space.

What merits special attention is that the time has gone never to return when the U.S. threatened the DPRK with nukes, the paper said, adding the powerful war deterrent of the DPRK reliably guarantees peace and security not only in the Korean peninsula and Northeast Asia but the rest of the world.

The paper Nizhegorodskaya Pravda on Feb. 12 dedicated one whole page to articles titled "Great man of history" and "Korea does what it is determined to do" illustrated with a photo of Kim Jong Il and Kim Jong Un.

It praised Kim Jong Un for translating into reality the dream and ideal of the people by carrying forward the sacred revolutionary career of Kim Jong Il and the cause of the preceding leaders.

The Khabarovsk Territorial Committee of the Communist Party of Russian Federation posted on its website on Feb. 14 an article praising Kim Jong Il for laying a solid foundation for the prosperity of the country and people's happiness by dedicating his all, illustrated with his photo.
