President of State Affairs Kim Jong Un visits Friendship Tower

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 Friendship Tower on July 26 on the occasion of the 71st anniversary of victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War.
He was accompanied by Choe Son Hui, Foreign Minister of the DPRK, and Kim Song Nam, Director of the International Department of the Central Committee of the WPK.
A wreath in the name of Kim Jong Un was laid amid the playing of the wreath-laying music.
On the ribbon of the wreath were letters reading "We Will Remember the Martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers Forever".
Kim Jong Un paid a high tribute to the martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers who helped at the cost of their blood the Korean people in the revolutionary war for repulsing death-defyingly the brigandish armed invasion of the US imperialists.
There was a march-past of the guard of honour of the Korean People's Army.
Kim Jong Un went round the Friendship Tower, together with the cadres accompanying him.
He said the victory of July 27, the peoples of the DPRK and China won in the most difficult period for the DPRK while sharing weal and woe in the same trench, is a great victory noteworthy in the human history whose vitality never diminishes despite of the passage of time and change of centuries.
Saying the military feats the officers and men of the Chinese People's Volunteers had performed for the victory of the DPRK would be kept in the minds of the Korean people for ever as a gold star symbolic of feats, he expressed belief that the blood-sealed DPRK-China friendship would be firmly carried forward along with the immortal spirit of the martyrs.
