DPRK prepares to send weapons to Russia - mass media

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is ready to conclude an agreement on arms supplies with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. This is reported by the Financial Times with reference to experts' assessments.

In the coming days, the leader of North Korea will go on a trip to Vladivostok to meet there with President Vladimir Putin. The topic of discussion will be the sale of ammunition to Moscow for the war in Ukraine," the publication points out.

According to analysts, Pyongyang may offer Moscow ammunition, multiple rocket launchers and short-range ballistic missiles.

In return, Moscow will offer grain, oil and military technology, as well as currency as payment," the newspaper said.

According to the article, such a rapprochement between the two leaders of aggressor countries will increase instability in the Asian region.

The Russia-North Korea axis complicates the security picture both in Ukraine and on the Korean peninsula," the experts said.

We would like to add that Pyongyang supported Russia's war in Ukraine by vetoing the UN resolution condemning the invasion, recognising the Russian occupation of Donetsk and Luhansk and supplying weapons to the Wagner mercenary group fighting for the Kremlin in Ukraine.
