North Korean leader Kim Jong Un left Russia on September 17 after a rare six-day visit that appeared to solidify his country's ties with President Vladimir Putin, fanning Western fears that Pyongyang could provide Moscow with weapons for its assault on Ukraine. AFPPIX: North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has “completed his official goodwill visit” to Russia and returned home, state media said Tuesday, adding the trip had “opened a new chapter” in Pyongyang-Moscow ties.
Although Moscow and Pyongyang are historic allies, with ties dating back to the Korean War, Beijing has long been the North's largest trading partner and most important benefactor. During his nine-day tour Kim “further deepened the comradely fellowship and friendly ties with Russian President Putin... and opened a new chapter of the development of the DPRK-Russia relations”, it said, referring to the North by its official name.
