Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un have continued to strengthen ties between Russia and North Korea after a rare visit by North Korea’s dictator.
A month on from Kim’s visit to far-eastern Russia, the North Korean leader has exchanged letters with Putin.
The letter declared he was “very satisfied” with how the previous meeting with Putin in Russia had gone.
He pledged a desire to push North Korean-Russian relations to a “new height” and went on to wish Putin victory against “imperialist” efforts to “isolate and stifle Russia”.
This has been taken as a reference to Western moves to isolate Russia following Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
