The delegation of the Military-Political General Department of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation headed by Director Viktor Goremuikin, vice-minister of Defence of the Russian Federation, laid a wreath before the Liberation Tower on November 5. Present there were Pak Yong Il, deputy director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People's Army, and Alexei Bartusov, defence attaché of the Pyongyang-based Russian embassy. Honour guards of the Korean People's Army lined up at the tower. A wreath in the name of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation was placed before the tower amid the playing of wreath-laying music.

It gives latest, detailed information about what is going on in the country in politics, the economy, culture and other sectors. And the paper also provides a vast knowledge of the nooks and crannies of Pyongyang.
