Kim Jong-un Delivers Speech at Grand Parade
Party's Role in Country's Development Emphasized
North Korea celebrated the 70th anniversary of the founding of its ruling Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) on Saturday, October 10, with a grand military parade in Pyongyang. The event showcased the country's military capabilities and emphasized the WPK's role in North Korea's development.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un delivered a speech at the parade, hailing the WPK as "the guiding force and the backbone of all our victories." He praised the party's achievements in various sectors, including economic development, defense, and social progress.
The parade featured a display of a wide array of military equipment, including tanks, artillery, and missiles. It also included a contingent of special forces personnel, demonstrating North Korea's commitment to maintaining a strong military posture.
The anniversary celebration comes amid heightened tensions on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea has conducted a series of missile tests in recent months, drawing condemnation from the international community. The United States and South Korea have responded with military exercises and increased diplomatic pressure.
Despite the tensions, North Korea remains steadfast in its commitment to the WPK and its socialist ideology. The party's 70th anniversary is a significant event that underscores its central role in North Korean society and politics.
