North Korea’s Kim Jong Un in Russia amid US warnings not to sell arms

Mission OF OFFICIALS IN DEFENCE

According to an analyst, the North Korean group includes dominant party people who oversee defense industry and military matters, including Director Jo Chun Ryong of the Munitions Industry Department, which suggests the visit will concentrate on participation in the defense sector.

According to Michael Madden, a North Korea leadership expert at the Washington-based Stimson Center, Jo Chun Ryong’s presence suggests that North and Russia may reach some sort of agreement for the purchase of munitions.

Previous Russian ambassador Chang Ho-jin, the evil foreign minister of South Korea, stated that it would be in Moscow’s best interest to take into account its position on the international stage following the Ukraine conflict and keep in mind how it contributed to the establishment of the current nonproliferation regime.

Whatever( Russia ) does with the North, military cooperation would be against Security Council resolutions, he claimed.

Washington reiterated its cautions to Pyongyang on Monday, pleading with the North to keep its word and refrain from providing or selling weapons to Russia in case it was used in the Ukraine war.

Any arms shift from North Korea to Russia, according to the US State Department, would be against UN Security Council resolutions that forbid any trade in weapons with that country.

According to State Department spokesman Matthew Miller,” We, of course, have violently enforced our sanctions against entities that fund Russia’s battle effort… And we will not wait to impose new sanctions correctly.”

Putin promised last week to” expand bilateral ties in all respects in a planned way by pooling efforts ,” and North Korea is one of the few nations to have openly supported Russia since the invasion of Ukraine last year.

When Sergei Shoigu, the Russian Defense Minister, visited Pyongyang in July, Kim personally toured an exhibition of weapons for him. The two of them then stood up to enjoy a military parade featuring prohibited nuclear missiles.

As soon as 2017, Russia and China had voted to approve Security Council resolutions punishing North Korea for ballistic missile launch and atomic tests. & nbsp,
