Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, visited the Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery on Mt Taesong, together with members of the central leadership body of the WPK, on the afternoon of July 26 on the occasion of the 71st anniversary of victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War.

The guard of honour of the Korean People’s Army lined up at the cemetery.

On behalf of the Party and the government, Kim Jong Un laid a flower at the wreath-laying stand of the cemetery. And together with all the participants, he paid a silent tribute to the memory of the revolutionary martyrs who had devoted their precious lives to the sacred cause of defending the independence and sovereignty of the country.

There took place a march-past of the KPA guard of honour.

Kim Jong Un, together with the participants, looked round the cemetery.

Recollecting the noble life of the first generation of the revolution, who had performed great feats that would go down in history by defeating the two imperialist powers in their generation, with absolute loyalty to the ideology and leadership of President Kim Il Sung, he placed flowers in front of the busts of O Jin U, Kim Il, Choe Chun Guk, Kang Kon, Kim Chaek, An Kil, Ryu Kyong Su and Choe Hyon.

He said that the fighters still live in the hearts of the descendants as strong pillars as they proved in the long and bloody anti-Japanese war and under the shower of bullets during the Fatherland Liberation War it as the eternal truth that the great strength of single-hearted unity between the leader and the people and the indomitable spiritual power of the army and people who keep the validity of their cause as their faith can bring about miracles unprecedented in the world.

It is the greatest exploit those martyrs performed for the country and the revolution that they developed the tradition of the victorious anti-Japanese war into the tradition of victory in the anti-imperialist, anti-US struggle and the tradition of eternal victory of Korea and remarkably amplified the revolutionary spirit of Paektu into an ideological spirit of all the people, he said, adding that July 27 would shine forever as a symbol of immortality of socialist Korea and a synonym of invincibility when all the generations firmly carry forward the spirit of Mt Paektu and form an integrated whole with one life.

He paid a high tribute to the martyrs, praying for the immortality of the soul and spirit of the martyrs who provided the precious ideological and spiritual heritage for our great state and people and created the immortal revolutionary traditions.
