Dear comrades:
We would first like to extend our fraternal greetings and also congratulate you for the important work that you are engaged in, through the pages of Northstar Compass, since under the new circumstances we Communists find ourselves in – it is of significant importance and relevance to express our views as Communists, and bring it forth to the workers and all the people.
Comrades, we are getting close to the 60th Anniversary of the defeat of Nazi-fascism. We as Communists are organizing events in order to give this important date the visibility and publicity it requires.
It is due to the preparations of events regarding the 60th Anniversary that we ask our comrades and friends to support us in sending materials regarding this date – be it books, flags, articles, documents, videos, posters, etc. Through your NSC and Friendship Society with the Soviet People, we hope to bring this message to as many comrades as possible.
We wish you comrades success!

Dear comrades:
I have become familiar with the Call by the International Council of the forthcoming Second World Congress that will be held in September of this year in Toronto, Canada. All the friends and comrades here said: "You must go!" It is easier said than done, since there is a problem of unity amongst the left parties here regarding the question of socialism and of the resurrection of the Soviet Union. Of course we should be represented at this very important Second World Congress!
But there is the problem of a passport. My passport is of the USSR, which I shall never-ever give up, since I consider myself Soviet, and therefore I cannot get a passport to go overseas.
There is also the question of finances.
I am asking you comrades to help me get a passport that will allow me to go abroad and attend this Congress. Can you help me in this? Can you also help me with finances?
I asked you before to publish in NSC the story and documentation of my struggles against the authorities regarding the worker S. Borisova and the struggle to get her job back. I sent the materials to you before which you did not publish.
Comradely yours
N.N.GARMASH
We are unfortunately not able to devote more space to problems either of individual character or others, since we are swamped with requests to publish all sorts of materials. Regarding your passport, we unfortunately cannot help you in this. Regarding help financially for you to attend the Congress – that is also a problem for us – since we are all volunteers in the organization and in producing the publication.

On behalf of the Workers’ Party of Belgium, we wish you a Happy New Year, and a very successful one for the International Council. We hope that the Second World Congress will continue the outmost important work of supporting the active forces that strive for the rebuilding of the Soviet Union.
Last December 18-19, 2004 I attended in Moscow a scientific conference that was held by the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences in order to commemorate the 125th birthday of Joseph V. Stalin. These important reports will be published soon.
On this occasion I met with comrades of the Russian Society for Friendship with Foreign Countries, Chechentsev ad Bourenkov, who are performing a most valuable work for the development of the Soviet idea and practice. Taking into account the lack of material means and the difficult circumstances of our Russian comrades, I think that we should esteem their efforts and activities.
Wishing the best of 2005 to all of you. Yours truly
Jef Bossuyt
Member of the International Council for Friendship and Solidarity with Soviet

P.S. The 78 page Book that NSC published in English, "The Lie of the Lenin Testament" is now translated into Russian by Chechentsev and being published in Russia.

Dear friends:
In recent times, the Japanese Government fabricated the "results of the examination" of the remains of the Japanese woman, Megumi Yokota that we sent with consideration of humanism, while the Japanese government is taking advantage of this for anti-DPRK maneuvers. We are forwarding the Memorandum regarding this case and ask you to publish it in your esteemed journal.
This Memorandum discloses the truth of the examination of the remains of the Japanese woman Megumi Yokota as they were analyzed by the Ministry of People’s Security and by our forensic pathologists.
Ultra-right wing forces of Japan are fanning up an atmosphere of confrontation with DPRK, demanding in introducing a "Bill on human rights in DPRK" The Japanese government has totally ignored the sincere efforts made by DPRK to confirm these remains. Japanese authorities are accusing us of not giving them the "objective results"
The Japanese authorities question the DNA tests performed by DPRK scientists and all other matters pertaining to the identification of the bones. They question the methods that we use. The Deikyo College where the tests were made are being criticized by people who have no idea how forensic scientists work, The Japanese claim that the tests are not on one body but the remains of two bodies or more.
In the DPRK the bodies are burnt at 1,200 degrees C. This storm that is brewing is conclusive proof that this is a deliberate move to put the credibility of the examination performed in DPRK that the bones were put in of other persons, not that of Megumi Yokota.
After we sent Japan the remains, the Japanese government took the remains and displayed them in a hall in Minsato ward, before starting and launching a smear campaign against the DPRK, asserting that the DPRK unearthed and deliberately cremated the remains in a bid to make it impossible to test them.
Japanese government faked the results of their examination and took the DNA and fingerprints of her husband, trying to substitute the results.
Japan refused to recognize that the issue of the abduction that was already settled. No matter how hard Japan will try to attain its political purpose by resulting to despicable methods of making profound and confusing of right and wrong, it can never evade the responsibility for having faked the results of the examination of the remains of Megumi Yokota. Japan should bear this in mind.
Now, that the Japanese insist that the remains are not that of Yokota, it should return them to DPRK, in their original state and start a thorough probe for the truth of their faked results and punish those responsible for it.
We express our firm belief that your organization will read this Memorandum and publish it in your journal.
With regards,
The Korean Committee for Solidarity with the World’s People
