Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism scientifically elucidates that the independence serves as the basic ideal to be held aloft by the progressive peoples in the struggle for the global independence.
The independent world is a new world where all sorts of domination and subordination are completely liquidated and all countries and nations live freely and equally. In order to build the independent world, all countries and nations should struggle against the imperialists’ domination and subordination, upholding the banner of independence. In this sense, the independence serves as the basic ideal in the struggle for making the whole world independent.
First of all, ideal of independence is the one that requires to resolutely oppose and reject any kinds of infringement of independence which is the life and soul of country and nation.
Independence is the life and soul of country and nation and dignity, honor and prosperity of country and nation hinge on the defence of independence.
History proves that country and nation boasting of having huge territory and population and developed economy and culture are unable to maintain their existence, to say nothing of their dignity and interests if they fail to defend independence whereas small country and nation can defend their dignity and honor and ac
Independence is not secured by itself even though it is the life and soul of every country and nation. Independence can be defended only when the countries and nations wage struggle against the imperialists, the dominationists depriving of and infringe upon independence as long as the imperialism, the dominationism whose nature is domination and subordination of other countries and nations, exists in the world.
Ideal of independence is the one that requires all countries and nations to not only resolutely defend their independence but also respect the independence of other countries and nations thoroughgoingly.
As all countries and nations regard independence as their life and soul, so the relation between countries and nations can be the just and fair one only when they respect the independence of the others.
There may be large and small countries, developed and underdeveloped nations in the world, but in no way must there be the dominating countries and nations and dominated countries and nations. If certain country and nation regard the realization of independence of other country and nation doubtful and are displeased with and interrupt it in every direction while considering the realization of their independence as due one, the relationship between countries and nations will inevitable reduce to that of mistrust and confrontation, domination and subordination and the global independence cannot be realized.
All countries and nations should not only resolutely defend their independence with a life and death struggle but also respect the independence of other countries and nations.
Ideal of independence is the one that demands to appraise all problems arising in the development of international relations with independence as a criterion and deal with them in accordance with it.
Independence is the principle and method that enables the countries and nations to evaluate all problems arising in the development of international relations in the fairest and most democratic way.
As the international relations should be the ones for independent development and prosperity of all countries and nations, so all problems arising in the development of international relations should be solved on the principle of defending and realizing the independence of every country and nation.
Only when all problems arising in the development of international relations are appraised and solved with the independence as an index, can the international community can be democratized in accordance with the aspiration and desire of the mankind and free and equal development of all countries and nations be ac
