Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, will meet with Kim Jong Un tomorrow in North Korea. Putin is visiting the nation for the first time in almost 20 years.
More than twenty years have passed since the last time a Russian president visited Pyongyang, in 2000.
Following several such high-level discussions, the two nations increased their military relations and began supplying the Russian Armed Forces with ballistic missiles and artillery ammo.
Amid worries about their military collaboration from across the world, North Korea and Russia announced on Tuesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin will be visiting the country for two days.
The West expects Putin to hold discussions with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in response to autonomous, more intense clashes with Washington. Putin is going to North Korea for the first time in twenty-four years.
Putin will make a sovereign visit to North Korea on Tuesday and Wednesday at Kim’s invitation, according to the official Korean Central News Agency of North Korea.
The North Korean state media did not immediately disclose details. Concurrent with the visit, Russia issued a declaration confirming it.
There are growing reservations about an arms deal that would highlight the threat presented by Kim’s nuclear weapons and missile programme and exchange economic help for Moscow to receive much-needed ammunition to support Putin’s conflict in Ukraine.
North Korea and Russia have significantly boosted their military, economic, and other cooperation since Kim’s first meeting with Putin in the Russian Far East in September.
