Dolgachev, first secretary of the Maritime Territorial Regional Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, said: The great leader Comrade Kim Jong Il is a guardian of justice as he applied the unique Songun politics in an overall way to cope with the evermore escalating moves of the imperialists to stifle the DPRK in the wake of setbacks of socialism in some countries and reliably defended the sovereignty and dignity of the DPRK, a socialist fortress. Bidenko, first secretary of the Pokino City Committee of the Party, said: Pokino citizens are recalling with deep emotion Kim Jong Il's undying feats for development of the Russia-DPRK friendly relations on the 15th anniversary of his historic visit to the Far Eastern Region.
