North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has pledged his nation’s ongoing backing of Russian policies following conversations with Moscow’s defense minister about global political developments, according to state-controlled media reports released Monday.
Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov led a delegation that participated in a dedication ceremony for a monument commemorating North Korean troops who lost their lives during combat operations in Russia’s Kursk region, the Korean Central News Agency reported.
The meeting underscores the deepening military and political ties between the two nations as both countries face international isolation and sanctions.
