The leader of North Korea believes that the armies of the DPRK and Russia should “play an important role in protecting the region and international peace.”
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un met with a Russian military delegation led by Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexei Krivoruchko. State radio station Voice of Korea reported this.
The leader of the DPRK and the deputy head of the Russian Defense Ministry “exchanged understanding of the importance and necessity of cooperation between the two countries in the field of protecting mutual security interests.”
According to KCNA, Kim Jong-un delivered “military greetings to the army and people of Russia” and expressed the support and “firm solidarity” of the government and people of Korea in carrying out a special military operation in Ukraine .
According to Kim Jong-in, the armies of the DPRK and the Russian Federation should “unify more closely” and “vigorously stimulate Korean-Russian relations” in the new era.
It is known about Krivoruchko that he was involved in obtaining state defense. He has retained his position despite recent reshuffles and corruption scandals in Russia’s military department.
As you know, on June 19, the leaders of Russia and the DPRK Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un signed an agreement on a comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.
ISW analysts said they have not yet seen reports indicating that North Korean troops intend to participate in combat operations in Ukraine.
