Russian President Vladimir Putin has received the Foreign Minister of North Korea in the Kremlin, visiting Moscow, the spokesman for the Russian Presidency, Dmitri Peskov, reported this Monday.
“President Putin received North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in the Kremlin, who is in Russia on a working visit,” said Peskov, quoted by the TASS agency, without offering more details about the meeting. .
This meeting occurs three days after the North Korean diplomat stated during her meeting with the Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, that Pyongyang will support Moscow “until victory.”
Choe then pointed out that from the very beginning of the “special military operation,” as Moscow calls its war campaign in Ukraine, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un “gave instructions to resolutely support the Russian Army and people in their holy war.” ».
He added that Pyongyang has no doubt that “under the wise leadership of the respected President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, the Russian Army and people will certainly achieve a great victory in their perfect struggle to protect the sovereign rights and interests of security of their State.
The visit of the North Korean minister to Russia takes place amid reports that North Korean soldiers are in the Kursk region ready to engage in combat with the Ukrainian troops that have occupied part of that Russian entity since last August, an issue that Moscow does not comment on. . EFE
