Following a congratulatory message to the communist party general secretary Miguel Diascanel, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is working hard to strengthen relations with Cuba.

On the 21st, the Chosun Central News Agency said, “Comrade Kim Seong-nam, head of the International Party, visited the Cuban Embassy in Juju on April 20, and congratulated Comrade Kim Jong-un to Comrade Miguel Mario Diascanel Vermudes, First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba, Ise Sotolongo, Los Angeles, politely delivered to the Cuban Special and Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Korea,” he reported.

As soon as the news of the election of the general secretary of Diascanel was delivered on the 19th, we quickly sent a congratulatory message with’Super Speed’, and on the next day, we delivered a separate congratulatory message again through the party’s international director.

In his congratulatory message, Chairman Kim emphasized, “The unwavering will of our party and the people to further expand and develop a special comradely relationship and strategic relationship with Cuba at a new height to meet the demands of the new era.”

He also said, “On the road to overcome all the challenges of the hostile forces and complete socialism, we will always go hand in hand with Comrade Miguel Mario Diascanel Vermudes.” “We will stand by the people’s side together,” the news agency said.

Ambassador Sotolongo expressed his gratitude and expressed Cuba’s will to further expand and develop the friendly and cooperative relationship between the two countries.

North Korea’s commitment to relations with Cuba is interpreted with the intention of strengthening its position through solidarity between socialist countries amid prolonged sanctions.

In particular, Cuba is the closest socialist country to the United States, and is also an important partner in the anti-American front that North Korea has argued.

Chairman Kim revealed his will to change the external environment of the country in an advantageous manner by expanding and developing relations with the socialist state in the report of the 8th party conference in January this year.

North Korea has maintained close ties with Cuba since the days of the Castro regime.

Former National Council Chairman Fidel Castro visited Pyongyang in 1986 to meet with President Kim Il-sung, and in 2018, the then-Chairman of Diascanel visited Pyongyang to meet with Chairman Kim Jong-un.
