North Korean leader Kim Jong Un visited Russia at the invitation of his counterpart Vladimir Putin. US officials said that arms negotiations between Russia and North Korea are actively progressing, and that Kim and Putin will discuss supplying Russia with weapons for the war in Ukraine. As for Pyongyang, this is a chance for the North Korean leader to shake off UN sanctions and break out of years of diplomatic isolation.

It should be noted that this is Kim's first business trip abroad after the 2020 pandemic.
It should be remembered that North Korea is one of the few countries that recognize the annexation of Crimea by Russia, despite their high commercial cooperation. However, despite this, Russia did not view the relations between the two countries positively due to the fact that the DPRK is a self-contained country and due to the agreements signed by Russia within the framework of the UN before the war. In general, Russia's attitude towards North Korea changed completely after the collapse of the USSR, and Russia provided its support to North Korea through Beijing.

But apparently depleted reserves and the two old allies, isolated by the West, have been forced to come together again.

Moscow and Pyongyang could move toward a more pragmatic military partnership, which means Russia could strengthen North Korea's nuclear program and receive additional weapons bases in return.
Thus, Russia can provide Pyongyang with the technological ammunition necessary for the effective use of nuclear warheads on its long-range missiles.

Interestingly, buying weapons from North Korea would be a violation of United Nations resolutions that ban all arms trade with the Russian-backed and isolated country. But now Russia, which is a part of the resolution signed by itself, has freed up its cooperation with other isolated countries. In short, the country has nothing to lose.

Although Moscow and Pyongyang have agreed on this issue, North Korea will have problems in providing military assistance to Russia. Because the logistics problem between the two countries suggests this.
Especially the relations between the two countries were needed. After the pandemic, the DPRK is suffering greatly in terms of energy, food and goods supply. They can operate at a very limited level.

As a result, we do not know what kind of events this event will be remembered in the geopolitical arena, but the two countries must expand their activities in order to survive the struggle against the West and its sanctions.
