Anniversary of ARF Marked in Britain
Pyongyang, May 19 (KCNA) -- The British Association for the Study of Songun Policy posted an article on its website on the occasion of the 79th founding anniversary of the Association for the Restoration of the Fatherland (ARF).

The article said that in the early period when President Kim Il Sung embarked on the revolution, he clarified the stand that the country's liberation and national prosperity should be achieved by the Korean nation itself through national unity and waged a dynamical struggle to realize it.

The article noted:

Under his wise guidance the ARF, the first revolutionary anti-Japanese national united front in Korea, was inaugurated and "The Ten-Point Programme of the Association for the Restoration of the Fatherland" published on May 5, 1936.

The foundation of the ARF and its activities became the precious tradition of the great unity of the Korean nation.

The President's idea of the great national unity was successfully carried forward by leader Kim Jong Il.

Thanks to his patriotic will and bold decision the historic north-south joint declarations which indicate the way of national reunification were adopted and published.

Kim Il Sung's and Kim Jong Il's cause of national reunification is being steadily carried forward by Marshal Kim Jong Un.

The 79 year-old history since the founding of the ARF clearly proves the truth that unity guarantees the destiny of the nation and prosperity.
