2.70TH ANNIVERSARY OF KPA
Minister of People's Armed Forces addresses parad
Pyongyang, April 25 (KCNA) -- Vice marshal of the Korean People's Army Kim Il Chol, vice-chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission and minister of the People's Armed Forces, addressed a parade of the worker-peasant red guards held in commemoration of the 90th birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung and the 70th birthday of the Korean People's Army (KPA). He said:
Today's parade is a powerful demonstration of the steel-strong faith and will of our army and people to glorify the undying exploits Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il performed in the cause of building the revolutionary armed forces and putting all the people under arms and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche to the last under the army-based revolutionary leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea.
The president founded the revolutionary armed forces in his early years and led the Korean people's struggle for sovereignty, independence and socialism to victory, putting forward the army as the main agent of the revolution.
Kim Jong Il advanced an army-centered policy during the most rigorous ordeals of the Korean revolution, training the KPA into an invincible army and turning the whole country into an impregnable fortress.
The DPRK's defence line is invulnerable and Korean-style socialism is sure to triumph as long as there is a solid military foundation provided by the president and the invincible people's army is standing guard over the forefront of the country and there are the worker-peasant red guards and the young red guards, the revolutionary civilian forces of the WPK. The officers and men of the people's army, the worker-peasant red guardsmen and the young red guardsmen will creditably fulfil the honorable mission as the front-rank standard bearer and shock brigade firmly upholding the army-based policy of the WPK with arms in the future, too.
If the U.S. imperialists and their followers invade the inviolable land, sea and sky of the DPRK even 0.001 mm despite its repeated warnings, the army and people who hold the dignity and sovereignty of the country and nation as dear as their own lives will deal merciless blows at the invaders and achieve the cause of national reunification without fail.
- 3.VICE MARSHAL KIM YONG CHUN ON 55TH ANNIVERSARY OF WPK Kim Yong Chun speaks at military and civilian parades to celebrate 55th WPK anniversary
Pyongyang, October 10 (KCNA) -- Vice marshal Kim Yong Chun, chief of the general staff of the Korean People's Army, made a speech at military and civilian parades held today in celebration of the 55th anniversary of the Worker's Party of Korea.
He said:
The grand military and civilian parades that are to be held in celebration of the significant 55th anniversary of the WPK mark an important occasion in glorifying for all ages the immortal exploits the great leader Kim Il Sung performed for the cause of building of a revolutionary party of Juche type, fully demonstrating the revolutionary traits of the whole party, the whole army and all the people rallied close around the leader in one mind and purpose and the fixed faith and will of the people's army and people to firmly defend and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche under the guidance of the party.President Kim Il Sung founded the party right after the liberation of Korea, a historic event of weighty importance in carving out the destiny of the Korean people and developing the Korean revolution.
With the foundation of the WPK the Korean people came to have their own reliable vanguard unit, a militant staff and the glorious worker's party era began in this land.
The WPK that paved a new road for the building of a revolutionary party in the era of independence and set a brilliant example in this process under the guidance of the President has attained the height of prosperity in its development because it has been led by the great Kim Jong Il.
Under his outstanding and tested guidance the WPK has grown to be an invincible party with the unitary ideology and leadership as well as strong organisation and discipline. The whole party is rallied close around the leader and forms a harmonious whole with the popular masses.
It has discharged its noble mission with credit as a staff of the Korean revolution and a leading political organisation.
Thanks to the party's army-first politics the Korean People's Army has grown to be an invincible army strong in ideology and faith to devotedly defend the party and the leader as well as the security of the country and people.
All the victories won by the people's army and the people in their efforts for sovereignty, independence and socialism and the miracle of the century they wrought by opening an epochal phase in the building of a powerful nation and the struggle for independent reunification of the country, overcoming difficulties in the recent years of the "arduous march" and the forced march are a brilliant fruition of the tested and experienced guidance of the WPK blessed with outstanding leaders generation after generation.
All the party members, officers and men of the people's army and people should get united in one mind and purpose around the great Kim Jong Il, their destiny and banner of victory, and fight it out to strengthen and develop the WPK into the party of the great leader Kim Il Sung forever and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche under the guidance of the party.
The officers and men of the people's army will always be mindful of the iron truth of the revolution that peace can be preserved and victory of socialism be guaranteed only by the arms of the people's army and will increase the military power enough to mercilessly frustrate all sorts of aggression moves of the enemies, safeguard the party and socialist cause, perform continuous exploits in the building of a prosperous country and thus discharge its honorable duty as befits the pillar and main force of the revolution.
The people's army and people will take the guidance of the party as their lifeline, carry through the WPK line of attaching importance to the ideology, arms and science and technology, defend and glorify socialism of Korean style and build a powerful, thriving socialist country of Juche in this land without fail.
- 4.STATEMENT OF KPA GENERAL STAFF 2ND DECEMBER 1998.
will answer U.S. aggression forces'challenge with annihilating blow = Statement of KPA general staff spokesman = The spokesman for the general staff of the Korean People's Army (KPA) today published a statement solemnly declaring its stand in connection with the fact that the U.S. imperialists are driving the situation to the brink of war. The statement says: The U.S. imperialists have recently gone beyond the danger line in their arrogant aggressive attempts to stifle the DPRK with military strength. According to a report, U.S. President Bill Clinton, during his visit to South Korea, unusually made a final checkup of the preparedness of the units of the U.S. imperialist aggression forces and readiness of its flying corps for sortie and raised the DPRK's nuclear issue, blaring that the united states is "ready and able" to do any things in defence of its citizens and an allied nation. The South Korean puppet, who has prolonged his remaining days with flunkeyism and obedience, is trying to curry favour with his master, obtrusively crying that the north must accept demands for inspections of an underground facility. The Japanese reactionaries, who slandered the DPRK, branding its launch of an artificial satellite as the launch of a ballistic missile, have also raised their heads again. Synchronising with this, the U.S. conservative hard-liners blared that if inspections of the DPRK's underground facilities failed to be realized, they would break the DPRK-U.S. agreed framework and take a "determined counteraction." This is, in essence, like a declaration of war that they will not hesitate to wage a war against the DPRK. What cannot be overlooked is the fact that publications of a third country have openly carried reports that the U.S. military "has completed a new war plan for invasion of North Korea" and the gist of the "operation plan 5027," a plan for a second Korean war of aggression allegedly to "retaliate" against the DPRK for the U.S. defeat in the past Korean War. The "operation plan 5027" we have learned through these publications envisages waging the second Korean war against the DPRK in five stages. The first stage is a "control stage." under the pretext of controlling the actions of the DPRK, the United States is to amass its aggression forces in and around South Korea and impose full-scale sanctions upon the DPRK by blocking its sky, seas and border. In this sense, it can be said that the operation of this stage is already being carried on in fact. The second stage is the "stage of strikes for neutralisation" which aims to "neutralize" the DPRK by making long-term aerial strikes at the whole area of North Korea with large numbers of field artillery pieces, planes and cruise guided weapons. To execute the operation of this stage, the U.S. imperialists have stealthily deployed naval and air forces including flying corps around the DPRK in various forms and methods and mastered methods of strikes, staging military training and exercises under various names. The third stage is the "stage of ground offensive operation." envisaged in it are comprehensive ground offensive operations that combine large-scale operations for landing on the east and west coasts of the DPRK with airplane-and helicopter-borne paratroopers' operations and special commandos' operations. through these operations, the United States plans to encircle Pyongyang, the heart of the Korean revolution, and "occupy" the DPRK as far as the River Chongchon. The fourth stage is the "stage of expanding successes in war." It plans to "occupy" the whole area north of the River Chongchon in the DPRK. The fifth stage is the "stage of concluding war" in which the U.S. plans to "achieve unification through the liberal democratic system." In order to put this operation plan into practice, the U.S. imperialists will hurl over 545,000 U.S. soldiers, 630,000-strong puppet army of South Korea and ultra-modern hardware and large-size striking means including 5 to 7 aircraft carrier flotillas, stealth fighter bombers F-117 and F-111, nuclear-capable strategical bombers B-1, B-2 and B-52. The plan contains three methods whereby to unleash an all-out war -- the first method being to mount a strike at the DPRK while imposing sanctions upon it over the nuclear issue and human rights problems, the second to make a "surgical operation-style" strike at the "suspected nuclear facilities" in the DPRK and the third to make a preemptive strike at the DPRK under the pretext of aggravated situation while continuing to render it strained. Only recently, the U.S. has dispatched to South Korea senior officials of the U.S. Defense Department including the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, the commander of the U.S. pacific forces, unit commanders of the three services, commanders of the 1st and 3rd army corps, the commander of the 7th Fleet, commanders of the 1st and 3rd marine expeditionary corps and other commanders who are expected to be hurled into the Korean front, one after another to examine the feasibility of the operation plan on the spot. at the same time, it has stepped up preparations for war against the DPRK through Rsoi 98, Ulji Focus Lens 98, Foal Eagle 98 and other joint military exercises. Nowadays, the U.S. imperialists are loudly crying that "tensions have been heightened" owing to the DPRK's "underground nuclear facility" and its launch of an artificial satellite. What they seek in this is to find a pretext to ignite the train of war according to the "operation plan 5027." Clear is why the United States has begun executing the "operation plan 5027", throwing away the mask of "appeasement" and "engagement" which it had once worn for some time. Unable to destroy our socialist system with its isolation and suffocation strategy and "appeasement strategy" to induce us to "reform" and "opening," the United States has adopted a reckless adventure, losing reason. From the outset, our revolutionary armed forces have expected little from the "appeasement policy" of the United States that seeks to demolish our socialist system. Particularly, they have followed with sharp vigilance the behaviour of the United States, the other warring party, which has turned away from the DPRK-proposed general-level officers' meeting. The prevailing situation proves that the sharp vigilance and revolutionary position of our revolutionary armed forces are absolutely reasonable. To answer fire with fire is a character of our revolutionary army and its unique mode of counteraction. Although the U.S. imperialists intend to dispirit somebody by setting afloat their reckless operation plan, it is a foolish dream. We have our own operation plan. "surgical operation"-style attack and "preemptive strike" are by no means an exclusive option of the United States. the mode of strike is not a monopoly of the U.S., either. It must be clearly known that there is no limit to the strike of our People's Army and that on this planet there is no room for escaping the strike. It must also be realized that the target of our strike in the war is not only the U.S. imperialist aggression forces who chiefly execute the "operation plan 5027" but also the South Korean puppets who are willing to serve as their bullet-shield and Japan and all others that offer bases or act servants behind the scenes. We neither want nor avoid a war. If a war is imposed, we will never miss the opportunity. Now that the U.S. imperialists, having thrown off the mask of "dialogue" and "negotiation," are bringing the situation to the brink of war, we solemnly declare with the dignity of Juche Korea that our revolutionary armed forces will never pardon the challenge of the U.S. imperialist aggression forces but answer it with an annihilating blow. The aggressors will never escape the fate of forlorn wandering spirit
1.KIM IL CHOL MINISTER OF PEOPLES ARMED FORCES OF THE DPRK DPRK ready to punish Yankees in singlehearted unity more powerful than A-bomb
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Minister of the People's Armed Forces Kim Il Chol reiterated the firm will of the army and people of the DPRK to fight to the end against the imperialists and class enemies under the present serious situation. He said this in a report at the national meeting held here today to celebrate the 11th anniversary of Kim Jong Il's assumption of the Supreme Commandership of the Korean People's Army.
He said:
The U.S. hawks are arrogant enough to groundlessly claim that the DPRK has pushed ahead with a "nuclear program," bringing its hostile policy toward the DPRK to an extremely dangerous phase.
The DPRK cannot remain a passive on-looker to the present serious situation where the sovereignty and right to existence of the country and nation are exposed to the worst threat owing to the U.S. hawks who are pushing the situation on the Korean Peninsula to the brink of a nuclear war.
