The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited Dalian, China, on May 7-8 2018 and met with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The historic summit served as an important occasion in valuing and brilliantly carrying forward the fine tradition of the DPRK-China summit meeting provided by the old generations of preceding leaders of the two countries and advancing the DPRK-China friendship, the strategic option of the two Parties and two countries, in line with the requirements of the new era.

At the historic second summit with Xi Jinping, Kim Jong Un said that Dalian is a meaningful place where President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il left their footprints that would remain etched in the annals of history of the DPRK-China friendship, adding that deep comradely trust and obligation between the leaders of the two countries serve as the roots of the bond of kinship combining the two peoples with the same destiny that cannot be separated forever, and had constantly been carried forward for decades until today. And he expressed his willingness to join hands with friendly Chinese comrades in the historic journey for achieving peace and prosperity in the Korean peninsula and Northeast Asia and building a fair and just new world.

Chinese President Xi Jinping also said that he was attaching importance to the bilateral relations of friendship and cooperation and would make every possible effort to honourably safeguard and develop them.

Kim Jong Un’s another visit to China in June, a month afterwards, fully demonstrated at home and abroad that relations between the two Parties and countries are developing as special ones that are unprecedented in the world beyond traditional ones.

President Xi Jinping’s Pyongyang visit in June 2019, a significant year that marked the 70th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the two countries, at the invitation of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un marked an important occasion in consolidating further the ties between the two Parties and two countries which were forged by intention and attachment in the joint struggle against imperialism and for socialism and constituted the support and encouragement of the Chinese Party, government and people for the just cause of the Korean people.

It is the steadfast stand of the Workers’ Party of Korea and DPRK government to further bolster up traditional bilateral ties as required by the new era.

The bilateral ties of friendship developing with socialism as the kernel will be further developed as required by the times thanks to the joint efforts of the peoples of the two countries.
