Anything concrete? Material?
Today KCNA put out another article on DPRK-China, but it isn't officially translated to English yet. The new article mainly says that China congratulates the WPK. Also DPRK respects Chinese reunification policy on the Taiwan issue. So I guess the only specific policy named is the Taiwan issue. Besides that, it just says developing friendly relations between China and DPRK
Some country leaders traveled to DPRK for the 80th anniversary of the establishment of the Workers' Party of Korea. KCNA has mentioned representatives from China, Russia, Laos, Vietnam, Indonesia.
