A. Zhuganov, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, on the 23rd.
  The message extended sincere congratulations to Kim Jong Un on his reelection as General Secretary of the WPK in the name of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation.

  The DPRK has steadfastly overcome the constant pressure of the hostile imperialist forces and the arduous trials due to it and is defending the sovereignty, independence and socialist principle.
  More than 80 years ago, the peoples of the two countries shed blood together in the joint struggle against fascism and formed a fraternal friendship in the course. Today they are fighting shoulder to shoulder again against the Neo-Nazism, that raised its head, and the aggressive hegemonic forces, demonstrating the invincible militant friendship between Russia and the DPRK all over the world.
  The Communist Party of the Russian Federation pays deep respect to the heroic feats of the Korean soldiers who displayed bravery and self-sacrificing spirit in the struggle to liberate Kursk from the aggressors by carrying forward the best tradition of the international solidarity.
  It highly appreciates the principled stand maintained by the DPRK in the issues of defending the historical truth and ensuring security of Russia including its firm support to the special military operations aimed at denazifying and demilitarizing Ukraine.
  We attach special importance to the traditional and friendly relations between the two parties and will, in the future, too, make an active contribution to strengthening many-sided cooperation between the Russian Federation and the DPRK in the spirit of the comprehensive strategic partnership, the message said.
  The message wished Kim Jong Un good health and fresh success in his work of leading the great Korean people.
  It also hoped that the Ninth Congress of the WPK would bring only prosperity, peace and victory in socialist construction to the Korean people and the DPRK and become a powerful motive force for carrying out all the tasks presented.
