The message
was
clear
from
the podium:
China
stands
by
North Korea -
signalled
by
Kim
Jong-un
clutching
the hand
of
a senior Chinese leader -
and,
secondly,
that
Mr Kim
shows
no
sign
of
a softer
stance
towards
the United States.
As he put it:
"The party's
revolutionary
armament
means
we
are
ready
to
fight
any
kind
of
war
waged
by
the US
imperialists".
