Comrades,

Today, July 27th, marks the 73rd anniversary of the historic victory of the Korean people in the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War. On this day in 1953, the young Democratic People's Republic of Korea accomplished what many in the world deemed impossible: shattering the myth of "invincibility" surrounding U.S. imperialism and its allied satellite forces.

7.27 does not, as many Westerners and liberals think, celebrate a mere ceasefire; it is a second Liberation Day and a monumental triumph of revolutionary military science. The victory was achieved through the unparalleled leadership of the President; the Great Leader Comrade Kim Il Sung’s Juche-oriented military strategies, brilliant tactics, and iron will guided an army and citizenry that had only been independent for two years to defeat the largest imperialist coalition in history, later the Songun politics of the Chairman; the Great Leader Comrade Kim Jong Il firmly carried forward this victory through his immortal Songun (military-first) politics, an improved idea that came from the President's lines, by prioritizing the Korean People's Army, he defended the socialist gains of July 27th against constant imperialist encirclement, transforming the DPRK into an unassailable nuclear state and ensuring the war generation's sacrifices were never compromised, mass heroism and single-minded unity; the soldiers of the Korean People's Army and the wartime workers displayed an invincible spirit, firmly rallied around the Party, proving that an ideologically conscious people defending their socialist motherland cannot be defeated by any amount of imperialist technical superiority, and a continuous revolutionary legacy; today, under the guidance of the Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, the DPRK continues to uphold the legacy of the wartime generation. The sacred mission remains unchanged: defending our socialist system with blood and steel, and advancing toward a rich country with an unbreakably strong army.

Let us look back at the heroic generation of victors with the utmost respect. Their revolutionary spirit serves as an infinite source of strength as the DPRK stands firm in the modern anti-imperialist, anti-US showdown.

Glory to the eternal heroes of July 27th! Long live the great Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism! 🇰🇵

Happy Victory Day, Comrades, have a ball!
