According to NYPOST, North Korea marked 10 years since Kim Jong Un’s ascension to power by calling on the country’s 1.2 million-strong military to unite behind him, state-run media reported.
The Rodong Sinmun newspaper — the official mouthpiece of the ruling Worker’s Party — urged the Hermit Kingdom’s military leaders and soldiers in an editorial to become an “impregnable fortress and bulletproof walls in devotedly defending (Kim) with their lives.”
The propaganda sheet hailed Kim’s “energetic leadership” in launching offenses “throughout the country for a fresh advance and leap forward as the stubborn attacking spirit pervaded the times.”
It also called for building a more modernized, advanced military that serves as a “reliable guardian of our state and people.”
“With him in the van, the construction of a powerful socialist country is sure to emerge victorious and its future is rosy,” the editorial went on.
