Pyongyang, April 16 (KCNA) -- April 15, Juche 1 (1912) was the significant day when President Kim Il Sung was born.

Fidel Castro Ruz, former president of the Council of State of Cuba, said with deep emotion that he would always remember Comrade Kim Il Sung who had shown his love and respect for the Cuban revolution and people and extended full support to the Cuban people's efforts and intention.
Among those personages praising President Kim Il Sung are politicians of hostile states and Western countries.
