On the occasion of the 33rd anniversary of the Kwangju uprising   the ASSPUK, Juche Idea Study Group of England and UK Korean Friendship issued the following joint statement;

It is 33 years since the residents of Kwangju city south Korea on the 18th of May 1980 rose up against the rotten and reactionary corrupt rule of the south Korean fascist puppet regime of Chun Du Hwan and the colonial domination of US imperialism over south Korea. The Kwangju uprising was a brave and heroic manifestation of the anti -fascist, anti- imperialist struggle of the south Korean popular masses and revolutionaries led by the Revolutionary Party for Reunification (later AINDF) .
The Kwangju uprising added a new chapter to the history of the struggle of the south Korean people for independence ,democracy and reunification . The heroism, courage and self-sacrifice of the Kwangju uprisers was truly remarkable .
The Kwangju uprising was a great inspiration to the peoples of the third world struggling against neo colonialism and dictatorial regimes and it was a great example to anti imperialist and anti fascist fighters throughout the entire world . The Kwangju up risers fought bravely against the suppression of the armed forces of the south Korean puppet regime backed by the US imperialist aggression troops . The blood they shed was not in vain as one day their deaths will be avenged.
                            The Kwangju uprising showed that independence and social change cannot come peacefully , that counter-revolutionary violence must be defeated  by revolutionary violence.

On the occasion of the 33rd anniversary of the Kwangju uprising we salute the heroic spirit of the Kwangju uprisers . We support the struggle of the south Korean people , led by the Anti Imperialist National Democratic Front of south Korea  the popular vanguard,for independence ,democracy and reunification and the struggle to overthrow the despotic fascist  puppet regime and drive out the Yankee imperialists.
