Human letters meaning "65" are created by participants on the Kim Il Sung Square as North Korea marked the 65th anniversary of the communist nation's ruling Workers' Party with a massive military parade in Pyongyang, North Korea on Sunday, Oct. 10, 2010. This year's celebration comes less than two weeks after Kim Jong Il's re-election to the party's top post and the news that his 20-something son would succeed his father and grandfather as leader.

Hoy se cumplen 65 años de la creación del partido de los trabajadores de la República Popular Democrática de Corea del Norte. Por ello se ha celebrado el típico desfile norcoreano en Pyongyang, con misiles y mosaico humano incluidos. Pero en esta ocasión ha sido diferente por dos razones:
En primer lugar, se prepara la sucesión en el gobierno norcoreano y la presencia del hijo del actual presidente Kim Jong-il apunta a que este será nombrado como sucesor. Corea del Norte, potencia nuclear, es el único régimen comunista hereditario del mundo. Este cambio parece indicar una posible transición del país como también muestra la segunda diferencia con otros desfiles pasados.
En esta ocasión la parada militar ha sido retransmitida de manera íntegra y en directo y se ha invitado a medios de comunicación internacionales para cubrir el evento. Según tengo entendido cada periodista ha tenido que pagar 3.000 dólares para poder realizar el viaje. La llegada de fotógrafos de Reuters y Ap a Pyongyang ha hecho posible que nos lleguen gran cantidad de imágenes del desfile tomadas desde ángulos nuevos y con una mirada fotográfica no propagandística. Imágenes frescas alejadas de las que suele pasar la agencia de noticias norcoreana. Hemos descubierto el sudor de los soldados mientras marcan el paso, los zapatos agarrados a los tobillos para que no salgan volando, a los miembros del partido hablando y riendo, a la gente que hay bajo ese impersonal mural de la plaza...
Impresionantes imágenes de ese gran temido y desconocido país. Ahora sólo falta que dejen a los fotógrafos y periodistas mostrar la auténtica Corea del Norte y no solo sus desfiles.
