In the past, the friendship between ** and Kim Il Sung began on the occasion of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. At that time, the marshal led the Volunteer Army and the Korean Army to move forward bravely and jointly resist the US-led coalition. It shoulders the responsibility of economic and cultural exchanges between China and the DPRK, and the two sides have frequent exchanges, and the roots of friendship have taken root.
In 1975, Kim Il Sung came to Beijing, ** was over 80 years old, and although his physical strength was declining, he personally met Kim Il Sung in order to welcome Kim Il Sung and continue friendly exchanges. When the two sides met, the great man bluntly said that he was unwell, pointed to *** and said: "If you have something to find Xiaoping, he can solve the problem." "Such a great trust has inherited the foundation of friendship between the two countries.
Subsequently, he and Kim Il Sung visited our factories and places of interest to discuss the country's major plans, and their friendship deepened. The exchanges between the two leaders, Deng and Kim, have become an important inheritance of the friendship between China and the DPRK. In 1978, ** presided over the work again, and Sino-DPRK relations were not affected by ***'s death.
In October 1989, Kim Il Sung set foot in China again and personally greeted him. Kim Il Sung's heart was surging when he saw ***, and the two were like old friends, discussing the country's plans together. It is worth mentioning that every time they meet, they spend plenty of time with Kim Il Sung, and this cherishing makes the relationship between them deeper.
By November, ** was over 85 years old, and considering his advanced age, he took the initiative to resign from the Military Commission. Since then, foreign guests have come to visit, and ** politely refused to meet on the grounds that they were unwell. Until 1991, Kim Il Sung was invited to visit China again, and he was received by the new leader. Knowing that *** is retired, he still proposes to meet again, showing a deep friendship.
Knowing that it was a greeting invitation, ** resolutely decided to get together with Kim Il Sung. And with that came three conditions he proposed. First of all, the rest of his life has been in seclusion, and he will no longer interact with the outside world, so do not publicize this in the newspapers, so as not to cause displeasure among other foreign guests, and there is no need to mention regretful things. Second, limit the time to a short 15-minute meeting, and don't be too long. Finally, the so-called meeting should be kept confidential and should not be made in the form of a movie, so as not to leak it. This kind of request comes from careful consideration to ensure that the meeting does not cause diplomatic trouble, showing its far-sighted wisdom.
Comrade Xiaoping's retirement and his encounter with Kim Il Sung are purely old and have nothing to do with state affairs. If it is publicized to the public, it will cause discomfort in other countries and unnecessary misunderstandings. For these two leaders, friendship is more important than national affairs. In the end, this decades-long friendship was reunited. At that time, only two translators were present, and reporters and photographers also hurried by, witnessing this rare friendship. When the two old friends met, their excitement was beyond words. At that time, China and North Korea were facing earth-shaking changes, and this meeting became a consolation for each other's souls.
In 1994, Kim Il Sung passed away at the age of 82. ** Hearing this, he was filled with grief, because the two were not only national leaders, but also revolutionary allies. Three years later, the era is over, but the friendship between China and North Korea will live forever in the world. Looking back on this good story, we can witness the vivid humanity of the leader. ** Acquaintance with Kim Il Sung's work, similar values and ideologies, led to a deep friendship. For decades, China has begun reform and opening up and established diplomatic relations with the United States, and North Korea, which is closely related by blood, understands China's changes. All this would not have been possible without the wisdom and efforts of the leaders of the two generations and Kim Il Sung.
