Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un receives message of greeting from Chinese President
The message said:
I extend warm congratulations and beautiful wishes to you, Comrade General Secretary, the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and all the members of the WPK and other Korean people on behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and on my own behalf on the occasion of the 80th founding anniversary of the WPK.
Over the past 80 years the Workers' Party of Korea has achieved proud successes by rallying and leading the Korean people while overcoming difficulties and trials and promoting the socialist cause of Korea through enterprising efforts.
In recent years Comrade General Secretary has made positive efforts to strengthen party building, develop the economy and improve the people's living standards by leading the Party and people of the DPRK.
I wish the DPRK would make fresh success one after another in its socialist cause and greet the Ninth Congress of the WPK with victory under the firm leadership of the WPK headed by Comrade General Secretary.
China and the DPRK are both socialist countries led by the communist party.
In recent years, I and Comrade General Secretary have taken the helm of the development of the relations between the two parties and the two countries and opened up a new chapter of China-DPRK friendship through several meetings.
Some days ago, Comrade General Secretary visited China and attended the commemorations of the 80th anniversary of the Victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
I and Comrade General Secretary had deep talks and indicated the way for further developing the China-DPRK relations of friendship and cooperation.
No matter how the international situation may change, it is the consistent policy of the Chinese party and government to successfully defend, consolidate and develop China-DPRK relations.
The Chinese side is ready to contribute, together with the DPRK side, to the cause of socialist construction in the two countries and make positive contributions to peace, stability, development and prosperity of the region and the rest of the world by promoting the steady development of China-DPRK relations through strengthening of strategic communication, deepening of working-level collaboration and close coordination and cooperation.
I hope you, Comrade General Secretary, enjoy good health and everything goes well.
I wish the Workers' Party of Korea greater successes one after another.
I hope the China-DPRK friendship will shine long.
