Seoul | North Korean leader Kim Jong-un promised full support for Russia’s war in Ukraine before beginning a one-on-one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Pyongyang on Wednesday, in a bid to expand their economic and military cooperation and display a united front against Washington.
Speaking before the summit, Mr Putin thanked Mr Kim for support in Ukraine and said the two countries would sign an agreement to boost their partnership as both “fight against the imperialist hegemonistic policies of the US and its satellites against the Russian Federation”, according to remarks carried by Russian state Tass and RIA Novosti news agencies.
