In return, Kim gifted Putin with a pair of Pungsan dogs. They were witnessed bonding over the dogs. Mr. Putin also thanked Mr. Kim for North Korea’s “unwavering and consistent support”.
Signing Of A Mutual Defence Agreement Between The Two Nations
The two leaders signed a mutual defense agreement on the arrival of Putin in North Korea, which suggests that the two nations will help one another in times of armed aggression by providing military assistance. Kim calls this the most powerful treaty between Russia and North Korea. The Russian President said on Thursday, that Russia might be supplying North Korea with ammunition.
Military Cooperation Between Seoul And Moscow
After the signing of the mutual defense agreement, news broke out that South Korea would review the possibility of providing arms to Ukraine. Moscow responded by saying that it would be a big mistake if Seoul decided to do so. Putin further confirmed that despite worries about the possibility of destruction from the agreement, the nuclear devices are of comparatively low power and “nothing particularly terrible”.
