Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

   Pyongyang, January 8 (KCNA) -- The Workers' Party and people of Korea will continue to strengthen the international solidarity with the world progressives this year, too. Rodong Sinmun today says this in a by-lined article.
    It goes on:
    Boosting the international solidarity is an important demand for the Party and people to successfully carry out their national and international duties.
    It is aimed at successfully accomplishing the popular masses' cause of independence, the socialist cause, by the united efforts. To this end the international solidarity should be solid unity and disinterested support. Therefrom, it is important to provide the international solidarity on the basis of the socialist idea. Only doing so makes it possible for the revolutionary parties to cement their ideological and political unity and solidarity and closely cooperate and support with each other.
    The international solidarity should be based on independence.
    A revolutionary party should respect independence of other parties while maintaining its independence. It is the principle and rule that should be strictly observed in the relations between the revolutionary parties.
    There can never be a superior or inferior party and an instructing party or a party being instructed among the revolutionary parties, and the comradely relationship based on independence and equality should be always maintained among them. Solidarity based on independence only can remain a solid international solidarity.
    The imperialists are now getting desperate, through international collaboration, to check the popular masses' cause of independence. Under this situation, it is important for the non-aligned and developing countries to positively support the peoples struggling for national independence.
    To support the people's struggle for independence and sovereignty is a noble international duty of the peoples of the non-aligned and developing countries out in the struggle to accomplish the cause of independence against imperialism.
