Communist Party of Denmark ends support for North Korea

Widespread criticism of Pyongyang and interest in peace movement leads communist party to withdraw

The Communist Party of Denmark (Kommunistisk Parti) has ended its membership with the Korean Friendship Association (KFA) in Denmark, stating that North Korean socialism is not real socialism, Yonhap News reported on Sunday.

The Kommunistisk Parti pointed out that the KFA in Denmark backs up the Workers’ Party of Korea (KPA) without criticism, and emphasized its opposition to nuclear weapons, stated at the party convention of November 2014. The party did, however, say that North Korea is under the threat of U.S. imperialism.
