A joint celebration meeting of Nordic progressive political parties and friendship organizations was held in Sweden on February 15 ahead of the birth anniversary of Chairman Kim Jong Il (the Day of the Shining Star).

Present at the meeting were personages of progressive political parties, organizations for friendship and solidarity with the Korean people and organizations for the study of the Juche idea in Nordic countries including Finland, Norway and Sweden, and the DPRK ambassador to Sweden and staff members of his embassy.

The attendees laid bouquets and flowers and made a bow before the art work depicting President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il standing together.

Tommi Lievemaa, vice-chairman of the Finnish Communists' League, Christer Lundgren, chairman of the Sweden-Korea Friendship Association, and Dag Norum, chairman of the Ostfold County Committee of the Communist Party of Norway, and others made speeches at the meeting.

Speakers said that Kim Jong Il was the guardian of socialism who indicated the road to victory of socialism by conducting outstanding ideological and theoretical activities and defended the sovereignty of the DPRK and the destiny of the people with the treasured sword of Songun.

They noted that the exploits performed by Kim Jong Il, who dedicated his whole life to the people and vigorously advanced the cause of global independence under the banner of independence against imperialism, will shine forever.

They expressed belief that the Korean people would surely accomplish the cause of building a powerful socialist country thanks to Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un who is carrying forward the idea and cause of Kim Jong Il.

A congratulatory message to Kim Jong Un was adopted at the meeting.
