The Kremlin has just affirmed its valuable relationship with North Korea, amidst numerous foreign reports about the planning of a summit between Russia and North Korea.
The political background triggering Putin to seek a summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un becomes the focal point of our discussion today, along with an exclusive interview with opposition leader Milov.
Last month, China officially marked the entire Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island, located in China's Far East region bordering Russia, as its territory in the 2023 map, subtly overriding the 2008 agreement to split the island equally between the two countries.
The vague response from Russia only after days of silence reflects Russia’s compromised position, with Vladmir Milov, former deputy energy minister and economic advisor to Putin's arch-rival Alexei Navalny, attributing this stance to Russia’s heavy economic reliance on China fostered by Western sanctions.
With the Ukraine war reaching a stalemate, Russia is grappling with a grave scarcity of artillery shells, prompting Putin to seek full-fledged military collaboration with North Korea, dismissing international sanctions and other potential risks.
In anticipation of the Russia-North Korea summit, Russian propaganda media has begun portraying North Korea as a flourishing and successful country.
An analysis with Kim Su-hyung, the head of diplomacy and security team, has raised concerns over possible discussions on military technology transfers including reconnaissance satellites, nuclear submarines, and ICBMs during the summit, potentially even facilitating North Korea in mass destruction weaponry manufacturing.
As the Putin administration finds itself in a precarious state, it is looking towards North Korea to salvage its dwindling influence, marking a distressing chapter in international relations.
Stay tuned as we delve deeper into this unprecedented development in our detailed report.
[Korean reaction]
--------------------
Surrounded by enemies, Putin eventually begged China but couldn't recover the original state and finally reached out to North Korea. At this rate, the Ukraine war could become Putin's political grave.
Whether it is the aged Putin or the young Jeong-Eun, it's sorrowful to see such vicious people - in a word, they are the axis of evil.
China never maintains a friendship; under the slogan of Sinicization, it perceives all neighboring countries as its vassal states. Experience China's arrogance, Putin, haha.
Russia is increasingly becoming a mess, and it's wise to stay away from China considering the future.
If Russia is this desperate... it could collapse more severely than when the Soviet Union collapsed.
