We celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the establishment of the diplomatic relations between the DPRK and the Republic of Uganda.
Since the establishment of the diplomatic relations, the two countries have enjoyed the cordial and friendly realations and strengthened the cooperation in all fields including the economy, the culture and the security.
The DPRK has given the valuable supports and cooperations to the people of Uganda for their struggle for independence and the prosperity of the country.
The President of the Republic of Uganda, H.E. Yowery Kaguta Museveni has visited the DPRK three times in 1987, 1990 and 1992.
The eternal President of the DPRK, Comrade Kim Il Sung had always met the President Museveni and strengthened the bonds of friendship and cooperations.
The DPRK is pleased to see the new development made by the Ugandan people under the leadership of H.E. Yowery Kaguta Museveni.
The DPRK and the Republic Uganda enjoy the supports and solidarity in the international arena as the same developing countries, the members of NAM and the 77-Nations Group, etc.
Particularly, we support the proposal made by the President of Uganda on reforms of the UNSC including the expansion of representation of Africa in UNSC.
We support the full integration of the East African Community and further the Pan-Africanism.
The DPRK sincerely wish the new development and prosperity the Republic of Uganda.
Now the Korean people, united single-mindedly under the wise leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, the President of the State Affairs of the DPRK, have turned out as one in the struggle to achieve a new victory in socialist construction by overcoming all challenges and difficulties in the spirit of self-reliance.
Miracles and innovations are created every day in implementing the new five-year plan for national economic development, which is to provide the people with more stable and civilized living conditions by thoroughly implementing the decisions made at the 8th Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea.
The challenges of hostile forces continue unabated and the difficulties encountered are enormous, yet no one can stop the advance of our people firmly rallied around the leader in a single-minded unity, and we will surely achieve prosperity of the country by dint of self-reliance and self-development.
I send my warm greetings to the Ugandan people who, as ever, support and encourage the struggle of the Korean people for speeding up the building of a powerful socialist country and safeguarding peace and security on the Korean peninsula and in the region.
The DPRK will, in the future, too, actively develop the friendly and cooperative relations with the Republic of Uganda under the idea of independence, peace and friendship
Once again, I congratulate this meaningful occasion, the 50th Anniversay of the establishment of the diplomatic relations between the DPRK and the Republic of Uganda.
