General Secretary Kim Jong Un’s Revolutionary Activities

Comrade Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and President of the People's Republic of China, on a state visit to the DPRK, laid a flower basket at the Friendship Tower on June 9.

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, together with his wife Ri Sol Ju came to the Friendship Tower to greet Comrade Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan.

Accompanying Comrade Xi Jinping were Cai Qi, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau, member of the Secretariat and director of the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau and director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee and minister of Foreign Affairs, and other entourage members and Wang Yajun, Chinese ambassador to the DPRK.

Present there were Kim Jae Ryong and Ri Il Hwan, members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau and secretaries of the WPK Central Committee, and other leading officials of the Party and the government of the DPRK.

The guard of honour of the Korean People's Army lined up in front of the Friendship Tower filled with the respect for the martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers, fine sons and daughters of the Chinese nation and true comrades-in-arms of the Korean people.

The national anthems of the PRC and the DPRK were played.

A flower basket in the name of Comrade Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President of the PRC, was laid there.

Written on the ribbon of the flower basket were letters reading "The martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers will be immortal".

The top leaders of the two countries, together with the participants, paid a silent tribute to the memory of the CPV martyrs who displayed the matchless bravery and self-sacrificing spirit in the Korean people's sacred war to repel the imperialists' armed invasion.

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

Comrade Xi Jinping looked round the inside of the tower, an eternal symbol of the DPRK-China friendship.

Comrade Kim Jong Un briefed Comrade Xi Jinping on the historical data, photos and oil paintings showing the brave CPV fighters who courageously made an entry into the Korean front with the genuine internationalist spirit and the feeling of fraternity, fought bloody battles shoulder to shoulder with the Korean people and rendered sincere assistance to them in their postwar reconstruction.

Turning over the leaves of the list of fallen CPV fighters, Comrade Xi Jinping recollected them, who clearly demonstrated the militant friendship and the spirit of comradely cooperation of the peoples of the two countries, bound up in the same destiny, and are still alive in their mind as an invaluable icon of friendship.

Saying that the days when the peoples of the two countries were in the same trench for battles, sharing life and death, sweets and bitters, constitute the eternal memories of history, which can never be faded and erased even after the long lapse of time, the top leaders of the two countries expressed the same opinion on the need to jointly preserve and manage well the memorial facilities dedicated to the CPV martyrs, intensify the education in the revolutionary traditions and the ideological and moral training among young people and carry forward the traditional DPRK-China friendship generation after generation.
