Mass rallies took place in all provinces, cities and counties of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on June 25, the day of struggle against US imperialism.

Present there were officials of regional Party, power and economic organs and working people’s organizations, working people, youth and students.

At the mass rallies in North Phyongan, South Phyongan and South Hwanghae provinces, speakers said that 70-odd years have passed since the US imperialists ignited a war to nip the young DPRK in the bud, but the inveterate grudge of June 25 still remains in the minds of the people.

As the DPRK people keenly realized that only strong military muscle can defend genuine peace and all valuable things on this land, they have possessed the strongest absolute weaponry to punish the US imperialists and the self-defensive war deterrence that no enemy dares to provoke, true to the Workers’ Party of Korea’s idea of building up the self-reliant national defence, they stressed.

Hot-blooded outcry and shouts of revenge against the US imperialists were heard at the mass rallies in Anju and Kusong cities, Pukchang, Ryongchon and Unchon counties and other places.

The venues of mass rallies in North Hwanghae, Jagang and Kangwon provinces, too, were filled with the surging indignation and strong will to annihilate the US imperialists and the puppet ROK clans who are still running amuck to invade the DPRK again, not content with having ignited a war of aggression and reduced to ashes its streets and villages 70-odd years ago.

Expressed at the mass rallies in Songrim, Huichon and Munchon cities, Kumchon, Hyangsan and Sepho counties and other cities and counties were the resolve to put an end to the confrontation with the US and achieve victory in the building of a powerful socialist country.

At the mass rallies in South Hamgyong, North Hamgyong and Ryanggang provinces, speakers said that as long as the US imperialists and the puppet ROK clans remain, genuine peace and stability can never settle on this land and the enemies seeking the DPRK people’s lives should be mercilessly and exhaustively punished and annihilated.

At the mass rallies in Sinpho, Kim Chaek and Samjiyon cities and Hongwon, Musan and Taehongdan counties, the participants hardened their determination to make full preparations for a war while closely watching the enemies’ moves to provoke a new war.

The surging wrath and hostility toward the sworn enemies making desperate moves to check the existence and development of the DPRK were also displayed at the mass rallies in Nampho, Rason and Kaesong municipalities.

The masses in Onchon and Jangphung counties and Sonbong District, too, were filled with a determination to thoroughly implement the decisions of the plenary meetings of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea with the mind of showering bullets and shells on the enemies.

Then followed public processions.
