The Sweden-Korea Friendship Association said Kim Jong Un indicated the direction and ways for Korea's peace and prosperity.

His New Year Address serves as important declaration as it indicated the way to be followed by the DPRK in the new year, it noted, and went on:

He underlined the need to develop the economy, improve the people's living standard and strengthen the defense capability of the country, prevent the danger of war in the Korean Peninsula, defuse tension and realize national reunification.

The friends of the DPRK in Sweden desirous of independence and peace express full support for his New Year Address.

The Anti-Imperialist Forum of Germany noted:

Kim Jong Un set forth the slogan "Let us frustrate the challenges by the anti-reunification forces within and without and usher in a new era of independent reunification!"

It is fundamental to achieving Korea's reunification to prevent the danger of war and defend peace and security in the Korean Peninsula.

The U.S. and south Korean authorities should discontinue their extremely dangerous exercises for aggression war and suspend military provocation escalating tension in the Korean peninsula.

The south Korean authorities should value the agreements common to the nation.
