There was a rally of youth and students at the Open-Air Theatre of the Pyongyang Municipal Youth Park on March 22.

It took place at the time when the whole country is seething with the will to destroy the US imperialists and the south Korean puppet traitors who are going wild with lunacy for confrontation as they cling more tightly to war exercises for aggression by making their preemptive nuclear strike against the DPRK a fait accompli.

Speeches were made at the rally which was attended by Mun Chol, chairman of the Central Committee of the Socialist Patriotic Youth League, youth league officials, students and other young people.

Speakers said that the red blood of millions of young men and women is boiling with rage at the news of the current situation of the country which has reached a critical point and the eve of outbreak of a war and that their angry voices for mercilessly beating to a pulp the US imperialists and the treacherous clique are rocking heaven and earth.

They made a vow to take the lead in a great war for national reunification, saying it is time to show the world how the solemn declaration of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the DPRK government that they would respond to nukes and head-on confrontation in kind becomes a terrible sledgehammer to punish the war provocateurs.

They stressed that if the US imperialists light the fuse of war at last, being oblivious of their bitter defeat in the 1950s, they will keenly realize what a high price they will have to pay for hurting the DPRK, a nuclear weapons state and nuclear power.

Expressing their resolution to fight to firmly safeguard their dear parents, brothers and sisters, native villages and workplaces, if the enemies attack them, the speakers said they would carry out their production assignments and study uninterruptedly in a more revolutionary way by holding a rifle in one hand and a hammer, sickle or pen in the other with the extraordinary willingness to annihilate the enemies.

Saying that the Korean young vanguard are eagerly waiting for an order to advance, they expressed their determination to unhesitatingly dedicate their lives in the fight to defeat the enemies for their one and only country and the victory of Korean socialism.

All the participants loudly chanted the slogans for mercilessly crushing the despicable American aggressors and puppet traitors, their shouts reverberating through the theatre.

That day, the young people held a group march accompanied by wartime songs.

The youth and students marched past Pyongyang streets in fine array as they flew the sacred DPRK flags the brave soldiers of the Korean People’s Army had flown on heights after winning battles during the fierce Fatherland Liberation War.

The firm faith in victory and militant stamina of the ranks of successors marching streets, loudly singing in chorus the songs in praise of undying feats, theme songs of eternal victory, bolstered the citizens’ confidence that they are sure to win in the campaign to defend the country and the revolution as there is the reliable army of young people.
