KOREA’S liberation day was marked in
style last week by comrades and friends at a seminar in central London on Thursday 13th August. NCP leader Andy Brooks joined other Korean solidarity workers in
stressing the importance of the Workers Party of Korea and great leader Kim Il Sung’s
guerrilla army in ending 35 years of Japanese enslavement in August 1945.
Other speakers
included Dermot Hudson, Theo Russell and David Munoz from the Korean Friendship
Association that organised the evening meeting at the Cock Tavern in Euston to celebrate
the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Korea.
The meeting was honoured by the presence of
Hyong Hak Bong, the DPRK’s London Ambassador, who said that the liberation of
Korea was the greatest gain of the Korean people and the greatest exploit achieved
by the great leader President Kim Il Sung. And many in the audience took the
golden opportunity to ask the Democratic Korean ambassador about the current
situation and the DPRK’s nuclear deterrent during the discussion that followed.
After a round-table
discussion the seminar formally concluded with the unanimous agreement to send a congratulatory message to Democratic Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
But it continued informally during the party that followed to celebrate the
anniversary of Korea's liberation.
The UK Korean
Friendship Association (KFA) organises solidarity meetings and protest pickets
in London throughout the year. The KFA also works side by side with the Friends
of Korea committee which also holds regular events in the capital.
