(February 7,1953)

The struggle to resist US aggression and aid Korea should be strengthened. As US imperialism insists on detaining Chinese and Korean POWs, sabotaging the armistice negotiations, and attempting vainly to expand its war of aggression in Korea, the struggle to resist US aggression and aid Korea must continue to be strengthened. We are for peace, but so long as US imperialism does not give up its arrogant and unreasonable demands and its schemes to expand aggression, the determination of the Chinese people is to fight on together with the Korean people. This is not because we are warlike. We are willing to stop fighting immediately and leave other matters to be resolved in the future. However. US imperialism is not willing to do so. Well, then, fighting has to continue. We are prepared to fight as many years as US imperialism wants to fight, fight on until US imperialism is willing to give up, or until complete victory is won by the Chinese and Korean peoples.
