North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un on Wednesday said that Pyongyang supports all decisions by Moscow as he met the Russian President Vladimir Putin at a cosmodrome in Russia’s far east Amur region. “Russia has risen to a sacred fight to protect its sovereignty and security against the hegemonic forces,” Kim told Putin, as per a BBC report. “North Korea supports all Putin’s decisions,” he added. As per several media reports, Kim reached Russia on Tuesday on his private train amid concerns by the West of an arms deal to support Russia in its invasion of Ukraine.
On being asked whether the two leaders would talk about obtaining arms supplies from the North to replenish Moscow’s dwindling stock of weapons and ammunition, Putin said they would discuss “all issues”, reported Reuters.
