North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un viewed Russian weaponry near the eastern Russian port city of Vladivostok. He was accompanied by Russian Defense Minister Shoigu.
Kim has been in Russia for a number of days and spoke with President Putin earlier in the week. He also visited a fighter jet factory with him. Today’s program included a visit to Vladivostok International Airport and the headquarters of the Russian Pacific Fleet.
At the airport, Kim viewed bombers that can deliver nuclear weapons and hypersonic missiles, which travel many times the speed of sound and are very difficult to intercept. In Vladivostok he was shown around a frigate by the commander of the navy, Admiral Yevmenov.
Kim’s visit to Russia is all about weapons. The West fears that Russia wants to buy North Korean weapons to continue the war in Ukraine. North Korea, in turn, is very interested in Russian satellite technology.
