  The respected Comrade 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, received a message of greetings from Thongloun Sisoulith, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party and President of the Lao People's Democratic Republic, on March 31.
  The message said:
  I extend warm congratulations to you on behalf of the Central Committee of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party, and the Lao government and people and in my own name as regards your reelection as President of the State Affairs of the DPRK at the First Session of the 15th Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK held on March 22, 2026.
  I still remember vividly that my delegation and I met you and received warm and grand hospitality in Pyongyang while paying an official visit to the DPRK between October 7 and 8, 2025.
  I firmly believe that the traditional and close strategic relations of friendship and cooperation between the Lao People's Democratic Republic and the DPRK with common ideology would be constantly deepened and developed in the future, too, and thus bring substantial interests to the peoples of the two countries and contribute to peace, stability, cooperation and development of the region and the world.
  I sincerely wish you good health, happiness and greater success in your noble and honourable work.
