The immortal Exploits Achieved by Chairman Kim Jong Il For the Cause of Global Independence

Today the Korean people and the world progressives are warmly looking back on the immortal revolutionary exploits performed by Chairman Kim Jong Il for frustrating the imperialists' high-handed and arbitrary actions and achieving the cause of global independence.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

"The priceless, immortal revolutionary exploits Comrades Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il performed in carrying out the Korean revolution and the cause of global independence will go down in the history of international relations."

The cause of independence of the masses is the national cause and the common cause of mankind, and the struggle for realizing the independence of the popular masses in each country is closely related to the struggle for realizing global independence.

An independent world is one free from all forms of domination and subordination, intervention and pressure, where all countries and nations exercise their sovereignty as masters of their own destiny.

It can be said that global independence has been realized only when all countries and nations are free from the domination and subordination of foreign forces and sovereignty and equality are guaranteed in all fields including politics, economy, military affairs, culture and foreign relations.

The more the world becomes independent, the more an international environment that is favourable for the independent development of all countries and nations will be created; on the one hand, the victory in the struggle for people's independence in individual countries will enable the world to accelerate its independence by strengthening the world's independent forces.

Since the imperialists and all sorts of reactionary forces stand in the way of the accomplishment of the cause of independence of the popular masses in alliance with each other and the reactionary forces allied internationally are challenging the cause of independence of the popular masses, it is essential for all countries and nations aspire to independence to unite and fight against it.

In the late 20th century the world socialist movement was forced to undergo unexpected twists and turns. The red flag of socialism which had been fluttering in different countries for decades was taken down owing to the manoeuvres of renegades of socialism.

The imperialists hastily proposed a toast to their "victory" and the advocators for capitalism made a fuss about the "end of socialism", clamouring that "socialism is a wrong ideal itself" and "the 21 century will witness no socialism".

At that time, crucial events that dealt a telling blow to the anti-socialist manoeuvres of the imperialists and all other reactionaries of history and brought light to the darkening world took place.

Chairman Kim Jong Il made public "On the Fundamentals of Revolutionary Party Building", "Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable" and "Socialism Is a Science" and other immortal works one after another to deal a hard blow to the imperialists and renegades of socialism.

His immortal classic works were the most powerful bombs of the revolution which crushed the anti-socialist stronghold, which was pursued lies, abuses and vicious plots, and the source of fresh courage to the revolutionary people aspiring to the cause of global independence.

The world revolutionary people confirmed their determination to push the cause of global independence to a new upsurge, saying that Comrade Kim Jong Il's work "The Great Communist Manifesto of Our Era" and "Beacon light for ships sailing in utter darkness".

Once a European party leader has been so excited.

"Has anyone ever written a piece of an article on the need to defend and rebuild socialism in such a grim period when socialism was frustrated and the anti-socialist wind of the imperialists and reactionaries was rushing violently?

Comrade Kim Jong Il advanced an outstanding idea and theory for the development of the world socialist movement alone and translated it into reality. Herein lies his greatest exploits as a saviour and defender of socialism."

Indeed, Chairman Kim Jong Il was the peerlessly senior statesman who led the world politics and the great defender of justice and the cause of anti-imperialist independence in the heart of our planet in every stormy annals. Thanks to the great General, the cause of anti-imperialist independence could dynamically advance along the orbit of its development.

The immortal exploits performed by Chairman Kim Jong Il for the development of the cause of global independence will shine all over the world with the victorious advance of the progressive mankind.
