I think the DPRK would be the half that could more easily accommodate aspects of the South's social and economic norms while rejecting those that do not fit in with the best needs of the people.

As an aside, where does everyone here get their flags? I'm interested in getting a new one.

Yeah, that makes sense to me, the ROK government is still unfortunately a client of the USA at the end of the day, and knows what the consequences would be if they made real moves towards reunification, sad but true. Long live the DPRK!

Also, my flag is the flag of the Jiangxi Soviet that was one of the first "base areas" of the CPC in the late 20s and 30s, there are a ton of flags for free use if you just google em haha idk thats just what I do, at least

History that has advanced through self-reliance

(Chosun Central Communications departing on May 6, Pyongyang)

The spirit of self-reliance, which made the Yanji bomb during the period of the anti-Japanese armed struggle and the first submachine gun after liberation with its own strength, guarantees the production of wartime weapons during the last motherland liberation war period (250.6.1953.7.27.195). Gave birth to the spirit.

In the first period of the war, the great leader Comrade Kim Il-sung took steps to move the weapon factory in Pyongyang to the military position in Seongcheon-gun, South Pyongan Province.

In keeping with the noble will of the great leader, the military ranks in the military position waged a battle without separate day and night with the determination to guarantee the production of weapons unconditionally.

In particular, the working class here, who had been ordered by the great leader to make 700 submachine guns and send them to the front within a week of the strategic temporary retreat, ended up working on weapons production.

In the cave where the masons fell, they rotated the belt with their bare hands when the blackout occurred due to the bombing, assembled weapons with the lights on, and carried out the production battle without interruption by firing test fires in a narrow tunnel.

The members of the corps fought tense battles even at the moment when the enemies contributed closer to the factory, resulting in the achievement of producing 750 weapons instead of 700.

On the day to ensure wartime weapon production, they went through a blizzard when materials ran out, and carried on their backs overnight to carry out production, and when explosives ran out, they dismantled the enemy's time bombs and unexploded bullets to make up for the insufficient explosives. I worked without shifts in the workshop, and I assembled a weapon by putting a whole grain of rice and salt in each of the pockets on the side of the rice bowl and chewing it before eating.

The revolutionary spirit of self-reliance and association of the military class in the army was brightly engraved in the great history of the country's liberation war.

Missile Deployments on the Korean Peninsula: An Accelerating Arms Race

"Despite the protection of US extended deterrence, over the next five years, the South Korean government plans to spend more than 80 percent of its $90 billion defense budget to boost defense capabilities, especially its missile defenses. Meanwhile, the US agreed to lift weight limits for South Korean ballistic missiles in 2017, “leading to the development of at least one heavier weapon that could play a key role” in implementing “strategies aimed at preempting North Korean attacks or ‘decapitating’ its leadership.” One of the significant outcomes is the Hyunmoo-4 missile with a range of 800 km and a warhead weight of two tons. This missile can be used to strike deeply buried underground facilities in North Korea.

Another big part of South Korea’s recent missile development is a new submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), the Hyunmoo-2B; these conventional missiles, with a 500-km range, are expected to be deployed with the 3,000-ton class KSS III or larger submarines. South Korea’s SLBM development and latest flight test may have been a potential motivation for North Korea’s new Pukguksong models, shown at recent military parades."

BIDEN’S EXPORT BAN COSTS LIVES

In his statement on the 23rd of April, in support of the passage of the COVID-19 Hate
Crimes Act passed by the Senate, President Joe Biden decried the rise of anti-Asian bigotry and
hate crimes. He decried the fact that many have been killed, and many more have suffered from
the lack of safety that this crisis has created. What he did not decry, however, is that this crisis is
a direct result of years of US foreign imperialism.

As of writing, over 190,000 innocent people in India have lost their lives to this terrible
virus. Over 2,000 innocent fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters are dying each day as Narendra
Modi’s hypernationalist regime fails to offer any semblance of support to its people. But, there is
hope: vaccines have been proven effective against the COVID-19 virus, and the entire weight of
the Capitalist mass-production machine is being put behind manufacturing millions upon
millions of doses of multiple different vaccines. Yet, once again, Capitalism creates its own
contradictions, and the United States as its imperial champion stands alone as the corpses of her
own allies gather at her feet. Despite easily possessing the capabilities to manufacture and share
vaccines with all those who are most at need, throughout the entire world, the Biden
administration has instead elected to embark on a game of vaccine imperialism.

Amid the initial outbreak early last year, accusations were plentiful of the United States
government actively participating in outright piracy, stealing much-needed PPE from anyone
they could get it from. Now, with the secret to vaccine production unlocked, the Biden
administration has begun hoarding. Not only is the United States government sitting on a
stockpile of over thirty million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine1 which it refuses to allow
anyone - not even Americans - to receive, it is also actively hampering attempts by other nations,
such as India, to create their own. Despite Biden’s honeyed words at a strategic summit on
March 12, that his administration would “expand safe, affordable, and effective vaccine
production and equitable access” in India, he has continued to enforce an export ban, under the
Defence Production Act, on the materials needed for vaccine production. In other words, the
Biden administration is actively ensuring that over two thousand innocent people die every
single day in India alone. As hospitals across the country have begun ringing the alarm, oxygen
supplies have run out, and the death toll reaches higher and higher, action must be taken.

The Communist Party unequivocally and categorically condemns the Biden
administration for its policy of vaccine imperialism, and demands an immediate end to the
materials export ban currently in place under the Defence Production Act.

We have nothing to lose but our chains

No to patents on vaccines!

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a great tragedy for more than a year now. In this period, in many countries, millions of workers have caught the disease, losing their health, their jobs or even their lives. On the other hand, in the same time frame, some companies that have sold the essential needs food, hygienic materials, masks and finally, vaccines, as commodities, have become among the wealthiest in the world. The capitalist class has turned the pandemic into an opportunity for greater exploitation of workers in order to make more profits.

Several vaccines that have been administered since the end of 2020 are developed by pharmaceutical monopolies. There is a substantial level of information on the clinical efficacy and dose intervals of these vaccines. Despite some of them being administered cautiously due to some adverse effects, they can effectively contribute to tackling the pandemic. However, since the administration of the first shot, only around 2.16% of the world’s population could have been fully vaccinated.

The main method of combating communicable diseases is widespread, rapid and effective immunization. Unfortunately, capitalism in the 21st century has been incapable of implementing this basic formula for a worldwide infection, as seen in the COVID-19 pandemic. The reasons for this situation are clear: Despite all vaccine development studies having been conducted thanks to public funds and the collaborative efforts of thousands of scientists, in the great capitalist powers the final product was seized by pharmaceutical monopolies under the name of intellectual property, or so-called patents. Today, vaccines can be produced only in a number of countries. While the most powerful imperialist countries are ordering much more vials beyond their needs and getting a larger share on the stocks available now and in the future, tens of countries, mainly the economically less developed, would only be able to vaccinate a small part of the population, in an uncertain future. This is turning a blnd eye on the deaths of the citizens of those countries from a preventable cause.

The most dangerous scenario in the case of infectious diseases is the vaccination of a very limited part of the population, which would facilitate the evolution of the virus so that it would have more advanced properties. This is what is happening right now.

The COVID-19 pandemic will not disappear from the world at once. Moreover, the social and environmental conditions created by capitalism show us that humanity will be facing such epidemics again, though in other ways. The COVID-19 pandemic will also continue until an effective treatment targeting the virus will be found and/or a massive and rapid vaccination will be achieved; and the best-case scenario is that humanity will continue to live with the coronavirus with reduced morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is in the common interest of the working class and the popular strata to struggle for priority to be given to vaccines and treatments against infectious diseases.

Patents or intellectual property rights have had an impact not facilitating the production of vaccines as argued, on the contrary, they slowed down the immunization of masses.

But we cannot leave any issue concerning public health to the “good will” of profit-seeking monopolies and the competitions between them.

Taking into account and valuing the actions of solidarity and cooperation, initiatives and efforts developed by some countries, as communist and workers’ parties of the world, we are jointly calling for:

The abolition of the so-called intellectual property rights, namely patents, on all COVID-19 vaccines and treatment formulations used or being developed, as well as necessary legal regulations for this in all countries.
Production, distribution and implementation of vaccines must continue entirely by public means and the intensification of popular intervention. Public health system has to be immediately expanded and strengthened.
We denounce speculation on vaccines. All information on vaccines and treatment formulations should be presented transparently to international scientific organizations. Research in this field should be carried out with the principle of international solidarity and cooperation, not competition
Anti-vaccine campaigns and unscientific disinformation must be decisively addressed.
The peoples must strengthen their struggle for the protection of health. We need to come into conflict with the interests of the monopolies, which sacrifice human lives for profit!

DPRK’s AKs: Inside the Shadowy World of North Korean AK Rifles

"North Korea began producing 7.62x39mm AK rifles in 1958. Designated as the Type 58, the weapon is a copy of the Soviet AK rifle with the milled receiver. Some of the early manufacture Type 58 rifles were assembled using a number of Russian-made parts until eventually the Koreans were able to produce all of the components in-country. The North Koreans produced the rifles under license in two state-run factories. These have been identified only as Factory 61 and Factory 65. Both are reportedly located in Jyn Chun, North Korea. The weapons were produced from 1958 until approximately 1968. It’s estimated that 800,000 Type 58 AKs were made during its 10-year production run.

The Type 58 was manufactured in full wood-stock and under-folding-stock models. Identifying marks on the receiver’s left side include a five-point star inside a circle and the model number, “58 Type.” On the right side, the selector positions are designated with Korean Hangul characters. However, the “safe” position is umarked. North Korea also manufactured a copy of the SKS rifle designated as the Type 63. After enough AK rifles were manufactured for the army, the SKS weapons were relegated to the Labor-Farming Red Guard (Home Guard). Some of the features on some North Korean AK rifles suggest that they may have also received some help from China. North Korean-made Type 58 rifles have surfaced all over the world, first in Vietnam and Cuba during the 1960s and more recently in the Middle East, South America and Africa."

Hello again, comrades.

The achievements of the resistance in Gaza these last few days have been absolutely stunning, as has been the involvement of "interior Palestinians", or Arab citizens of Israel. One can only imagine what it would look like if Hezbollah got involved, though I'm not outright in favor of that yet.

Unfinished Confrontation With Fascism

It has been 76 years since the world democratic forces achieved a brilliant victory in the Second World War, which had plunged the whole world into chaos of rampant destruction and slaughter and brought misery and pain to hundreds of millions of peoples.

Though many years have passed, the humankind still lives with incurable wounds of distress, which the fascists inflicted by committing the armed invasion and untold barbaric human slaughter claiming a great number of lives in a wild dream to fascistize and enslave the whole world.

The United Nations General Assembly at its 59th Session declared 8 – 9 May as a time of remembrance of all victims of the Second World War and on these days, encourages all countries to achieve national reconciliation and unity, not forgetting the lessons drawn from the war.

However, the world today witnesses the moves to openly label the fascist war criminals and their cohorts as “defenders of freedom” and “national heroes” and even praise their crimes as patriotic deeds.

Extreme rightists of some Western countries turn black into white by unreasonably asserting that the Allies of the Second World War were criminals and the fascists are not at fault. They are also clamoring that the results of the Second World War should be reconsidered to retrieve the honor of fascists.

Advocating for “their conquest of the world”, they attempt to revive Nazism that preached the “extermination” of inferior nations by a “superior nation”. This is a clear manifestation of national chauvinism and racism to oppress and dominate other countries for all intents and purposes and also an act of disregarding the fact that the existence of their own country would have been inconceivable without anti-fascist struggle.

The attempts to label the Nazis as “heroes” and distort the history constitute an insult to known and unknown heroes who sacrificed their lives courageously and an insult to the souls of innocent peoples killed during the war against Nazis. This is so much dangerous as disrupting the world peace and security by spreading misanthropic and confrontational spirits.

History can neither be denied nor distorted.

All countries of the world should be highly vigilant against and never tolerate the extremely dangerous attempt to revive fascism, which will otherwise inflict horrendous misery and calamity upon the humanity and trigger another confrontation and war.

I haven't seen the DPRK give a statement on the Zionist regime's attacks on Gaza yet, but this message from last month is worth sharing I think.

Tradition of DPRK-Palestine Friendship Will Ever Continue

April 13 marks the 55th anniversary of establishment of diplomatic relations between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea(DPRK) and Palestine.

On April 13, 1966, the government of the DPRK recognized the Palestine Liberation Organization as the sole legitimate representation of the Palestinian people and established diplomatic relations with Palestine.

The friendly relations between the two countries have since continuously developed into that of comrades-in-arms based on principle and obligation through their common struggle for independence, sovereignty, justice and peace.

President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il always provided both material and moral support to the Palestinian people in their righteous cause for terminating the Israeli occupation and establishing an independent state with Kuds as its capital.

President Kim Il Sung met with H.E. Yasser Arafat, former President of the State of Palestine, who visited our country several times, and other high-level delegations of Palestine, and expressed full support to and solidarity with their struggle and provided unreserved assistance to them. And when the State of Palestine was proclaimed on November 15, 1988, President Kim Il Sung saw to it that the government of the DPRK would be the first to recognize it.

Chairman Kim Jong Il made sure that the DPRK expressed its stance in full support of the efforts of the Palestinian people for gaining status of an independent state at the United Nations and other international arena.

The tradition of friendly relations between the two countries forged by the proceeding leaders is now being inherited on an excellent term by Comrade Kim Jong Un, President of the State Affairs of the DPRK, and H.E. Mahmoud Abbas, President of the State of Palestine.

Our people extend invariable support and encouragement to the righteous struggle of the Palestinian people for regaining the occupied territory and restoring the legitimate national rights, and the Palestinian people actively support the struggle of our people for realizing independent and peaceful reunification of the country without being subject to any foreign interference, all of which adding to the increased cooperation in the international arena.

Palestine was granted an observer status at the United Nations in November 2011, buttressed by the support of many countries of the world, and thereafter, it became full members of several international organizations including the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

Currently, Palestine enjoys official recognition from over 140 countries, and it established diplomatic relations with more than 120 countries. It is making active efforts to obtain status of a full member of the United Nations.

We always extend our full support and solidarity to the righteous cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights, including the right to self-determination, the right to return home and the right to establish an independent state with East Kuds as the capital city.

The aspiration and desire of the Palestinian people to build an independent state on their motherland and to lead a happy life will surely come true, and the tradition of friendly relations between the two countries will ever continue.
