A memorial meeting was held in Russia on July 7 on the occasion of the 28th anniversary of demise of President Kim Il Sung.
Attending it were personages of the government, political parties, organizations and institutions and masses of Russia, the DPRK ambassador to Russia and his embassy members.
The participants laid floral baskets and bouquets before the portraits of smiling President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il.
A keynote address and other speeches were made at the meeting.
July 8 is the greatest memorial day not only for the Korean people but also for all the progressives of the world, the chairperson of the Russian Association for Friendship and Cultural Cooperation with the DPRK said in the keynote address, adding:
It has been 28 years after Comrade Kim Il Sung passed away, but his exploits for the cause of human independence are still handed down and will be immortal along with the century.
A section head of the Asia 1 Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia and other speakers highly praised the President as a man of great eminence who provided the revolutionary people fighting for the freedom and independence with the immortal Juche idea, an iron-willed commander who founded the Party, state and army of Korea and defeated the two formidable imperialist foes in one generation and an outstanding state political activist who greatly contributed to the development of the DPRK-Russia relations.
