Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Participates in Commemorations Marking 80th Anniversary of Victory in Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and World Anti-Fascist War
The Japanese imperialists inflicted tyranny and violence unprecedented in human history in an attempt to stamp out even the soul and spirit of Korea, but they could not break its people’s steadfast spirit for independence; the patriotic anti-Japanese struggle of the people to win back their national sovereignty at the cost of their lives did not stop even a moment.
The armed struggle of their fine sons and daughters against the militarist Japan that emerged as a power in Asia was a death-defying, bloody resistance they fought shouldering the destiny of their country and their descendants and overcoming severe ordeals and painful sacrifices; and the anti-Japanese revolutionary feats they performed from the consistent independent stand are clear proof of the course the Korean people pioneered to achieve independence by their own efforts.
It is in no way an accidental event in the course of history, but the victory won by the all-people anti-Japanese forces that fought unto death in the spirit of independence. Herein lies the revolutionary character and political importance of our cause of liberation.
The voices underscored a national memory shaped more by the narrative of victimhood than by a full reckoning with the causes and consequences of war, which offered a glimpse into how Japan remembers and forgets its wartime past.
While the physical scars of nuclear devastation are meticulously documented in museums and memorials, Japan’s aggressive wartime conduct is conspicuously muted in both public discourse and state education.
Outside the official ceremony, anti-militarist demonstrators gathered near the atomic bombing site. Their placards decried Japan’s growing defence budget and the possibility of nuclear “sharing” with the U.S.
They were kept outside the formal event by riot police, while right-wing activists tried to drown them out with loudspeakers.
When his supervisor suggested exploring more natural methods to treat carbon emissions, Deng immediately thought of that land. “I thought, why not capture carbon emissions and use them to fix alkaline soil?” he said.
His department thought the idea was unconventional, but his proposal won support. Li Ping, Party chief of the university’s college of safety and emergency management and engineering, said that the topic addresses local economic needs.
“We encourage our researchers to innovate and solve practical problems. We don’t restrict them in terms of research direction.”
Still, the road wasn’t smooth. Just collecting sufficient varieties of saline-alkaline soil turned out to be a challenge.
“That’s when the Party really stepped in,” Deng said. “Grassroots Party organizations helped connect me with locals who knew where to find the land I needed.”
“The CPC keeps renewing itself and adapting to the times. It’s vibrant and full of energy — and that’s why so many young people are drawn to it,” Deng said.
Of course, despite the horrific nature of the bombing – a British POW (Victor Gregg) was present – the onus today to is paint the Nazi Germans (and their allies) as “victims”, and the Soviets as the enemy. I remember seeing photographs of Victor Gregg attending Communist Party Meetings in the UK in his old age – but following his death in 2021, the British State has been quick to down play his Socialist leanings and pro-Soviet attitudes – by declaring him an “MI6” spy! As he helped the Germans after the bombing (he ladled what was left of the bodies out of bomb shelters within which the women and children had been “cooked” and reduced to a type of thick “soap”) – the local Police (which had been tasked with executing him as a British Commando) released him as a sign of good-will. Gregg chose to walk in the direction of the advancing Soviet Red Army – which took him in and greeted him as a fellow Comrade! Whatever the truth surrounding Gregg – learn how deceptive the bourgeois State can be! Either way, the USSR stated that the Allied bombing of Dresden was not requested by them – and had no direct influence on the outcome of the battle.
HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, April 30 (Xinhua) — At the invitation of Vietnam’s Ministry of National Defense, the Guard of Honour of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) participated in a military parade here on Wednesday, celebrating Vietnam’s 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification.
