The chairperson of the Russian Association for the Study of the Juche Idea stressed that Kim Jong Il , at a time when the imperialists had reached an extreme in their moves to stifle the DPRK, put forward the People's Army as the main force of the revolution to work world-startling miracles in all fields of socialist construction.
