North Korean media have claimed that an Austrian publishing house published one of former dictator Kim Jong Il’s books shortly before an important anniversary.
State-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said in an Oct. 4 report that Alwa & Deil Publishing House in Vienna, Austria, “brought out in booklet [form]” a pamphlet that the former North Korean dictator published in 1990. It said the copy shop did this on Sept. 26 “ahead of the 72nd founding anniversary of the Workers’ Party of Korea” that was celebrated on Tuesday, Oct. 10.
