Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the DPRK, visited the Fatherland Liberation War Martyrs Cemetery at 00:00 on July 27, the 68th anniversary of the victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War.
He was greeted on the spot by commanding officers of the Korean People's Army, including Pak Jong Chon, Kwon Yong Jin and Ri Yong Gil, and commanders of large combined units and combined units of the KPA.
He laid a flower before the cemetery.
He paid tribute to the heroes of the great years who had defended the sovereignty and dignity of the country with honour and made the history of brilliantly carrying forward the Korean revolution as they burnt with boundless loyalty to the leader, confidence in victory and ardent patriotism.
He looked round the cemetery together with the participants.
He said that no matter how much time may elapse and how many times a generation is replaced by another, the noble revolutionary spirit and heroic feats of the generation who won the victory in the war would dynamically propel the victorious advance of the Korean people towards a fresh victory of the revolution, steadily inspiring and sublimating patriotism and fighting zeal of the rising generations.
