Iran (IMNA) - During the landmark visit, Putin said Moscow is fighting the hegemonic and imperialist policies of the United States and its allies. He praised North Korea's unwavering support for Russian policy, noting that the relations between Russia and North Korea are based on "equality and mutual respect."
Strengthening Ties Amid Sanctions
Both Russia and North Korea are heavily sanctioned by Washington, and the two leaders are seeking to display a united front against the US. Putin said a new document has been prepared for stable and long-term relations between North Korea and Russia.
Towards a Multi-Polar World
North Korea's state news agency KCNA said the countries' partnership is an "engine for accelerating the building of a new multi-polar world" and that Putin's visit demonstrates the invincibility and durability of their friendship and unity.
This was Putin's first visit to North Korea since 2000, following a trip by Kim Jong-un to Russia in September 2023 to discuss military cooperation between the two nations.
