JAKARTA - Russian President Vladimir Putin is rumored to be visiting North Korea (North Korea) and Vietnam in the coming weeks.
Citing Reuters, the information was first reported by the Vedomosti newspaper from a diplomatic source today, Monday, June 10.
Russian Ambassador to North Korea Alexander Matsegora told Vedomosti that Putin's visit to Pyongyang was "actively prepared".
The Ambassador added that Putin's visit to North Korea was most likely after visiting Vietnam in June 2024.
Earlier, North Korean President Kim Jong-un visited Russia in September 2023.
During the visit, Kim visited Vostochny's space launch center in eastern Russia. Putin also promised to help North Korea build satellites.
The Kremlin says Russia wants to build partnerships with North Korea in all fields. In response, Putin will visit North Korea but the time has not been confirmed.
Russia's relations with North Korea and countries that are not allies of the United States (US) like Iran have been further enhanced since the war with Ukraine. The increasingly warm communication network is a source of Western concern.
