The
Chadswell Centre in central London
once again became the venue for Korean solidarity activists gathering
last
weekend to commemorate the defeat of US imperialism and its lackeys in
the
Korean War, and to celebrate the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s
successful launch of a new ICBM [intercontinental ballistic missile].
Called by the Korean Friendship Association (KFA), the meeting was
opened by
Dermot Hudson who praised the launch that strengthens Democratic Korea’s
nuclear deterrent capacity. He said: “The US imperialists are putting
immense
pressure on People's Korea and we must rally around DPRK and defend it.”
The
latest missile test showed that the DPRK can not only defend itself from
US
imperialism but can win a war for national reunification, a war to
liberate
south Korea from the colonial rule of US imperialism.”
Other speakers
included Theo Russell from the Central Committee of the New Communist Party,
and KFA activists Shaun Pickford and James Taylor. Sadly Prof Dr Harish Gupta of
the International Institute of the Juche Idea could not join us but his paper,
detailing the great feats achieved by Korean communist leader Kim Il Sung in
liberating Korea from Japanese colonialism and later defeating the might of
US-led imperialism in the Fatherland Liberation War, was read out.
As usual there was
plenty of time for questions and general discussion, which continued over
refreshments after the meeting ended.
