Putin vows to support North Korea against the United States

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed on Tuesday to deepen trade and security ties with North Korea and to support it against the United States, as he headed to the reclusive nuclear-armed country for the first time in 24 years.

The U.S. and its Asian allies are trying to work out just how far Russia will go in support of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whose country is the only one to have conducted nuclear weapon tests in the 21st century.

In a signal that Russia, a veto-wielding member of the United Nations Security Council, is reassessing its entire approach to North Korea, Putin praised Pyongyang for resisting what he said was U.S. economic pressure, blackmail and threats.

In an article published by North Korean state media, Putin praised “Comrade” Kim, and promised to “jointly resist illegitimate unilateral restrictions”, to develop trade and strengthen security across Eurasia.

“Washington, refusing to implement previously reached agreements, continuously puts forward new, increasingly stringent and obviously unacceptable demands,” Putin said in the article, printed on the front page of North Korea’s Rodong Sinmun, the ruling Workers’ Party mouthpiece.

“Russia has always supported and will continue to support the DPRK and the heroic Korean people in their opposition to the insidious, dangerous and aggressive enemy.”

Putin noted the Soviet Union was the first to recognise the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) founded by Kim’s grandfather, Kim Il Sung, less than two years before the 1950 Korean War.

North Korean state media also published articles praising Russia and supporting its military operations in Ukraine, calling them a “sacred war of all Russian citizens”.

Putin’s state visit comes amid U.S. accusations that North Korea has supplied “dozens of ballistic missiles and over 11,000 containers of munitions to Russia” for use in Ukraine. South Korea, a staunch U.S. ally, has raised similar concerns.

The White House said on Monday it was troubled by the deepening relationship between Russia and North Korea. The U.S. State Department said it was “quite certain” Putin would be seeking arms to support his war in Ukraine.

Moscow and Pyongyang have denied arms transfers but have vowed to boost military ties, possibly including joint drills.

Russia is due to outproduce the whole NATO military alliance on ammunition production this yearNew Tab , opens new tab , so Putin’s trip is likely aimed at underscoring to Washington just how disruptive Moscow can be on a host of global crises.

NPP unity call: Kennedy Agyapong urges supporters to rally behind Bawumia Kennedy Agyapong, Assin Central MP, has made a conciliatory gesture towards his fellow New Patriotic Party (NPP) members, seeking to mend fences after the recent campaign tour by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, which had sparked internal divisions and controversy within the party. In a bid to alleviate tensions stemming from his unannounced campaign efforts, Kennedy Agyapong took to his social media platform X (formerly twitter) acknowledging his mistake, saying he understands that his failure to notify party members in advance caused frustration among some of them, and for that oversight, he offer his sincere apologies. Kennedy Agyapong reaffirmed his dedication to the New Patriotic Party (NPP), putting to rest speculation about his potential resignation or plans to run as an independent candidate, he emphasized that a united front is crucial for the NPP's success. "It didn’t go well with some of you, and I want to apologize for not informing you before I went on the campaign tour. However, I want all party faithful to know that I have not resigned from the party, nor am I going independent. I am still a member of the NPP," he stated. Kennedy Agyapong extended a hand of unity to both his supporters and that of Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, encouraging both groups to put aside their differences and rally behind Dr. Bawumia's leadership, working together towards a common purpose and the advancement of the NPP's shared objectives. "I also appeal to the supporters of the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to reciprocate the same goodwill I am extending on behalf of my supporters. I plead with both sides to unite and rally behind Dr. Bawumia and the NPP,he stated.
