Kim Jong-un of North Korea is scheduled to hold talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Russia, primarily to discuss the supply of weapons according to reports from The New York Times.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un plans to visit Russia this month to meet with President Vladimir Putin. They will discuss the possibility of Russia providing more weapons for Ukraine’s war, as well as other military cooperation. Kim does not often travel outside of North Korea and will most likely use an armored train to travel to Vladivostok for the meeting. The leaders will attend the Eastern Economic Forum at the Far Eastern Federal University. Putin wants Kim to agree to send artillery shells and antitank missiles, while Kim hopes Russia will provide advanced satellite and nuclear-powered submarine technology. Kim also desires food aid for his country. There is a possibility that Kim may also visit Moscow and the Vostochny Cosmodrome. The visit idea came about after Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu traveled to North Korea in July to commemorate the 70th anniversary of a cease-fire agreement in the Korean War. Both countries have faced heavy sanctions from Western powers and Japan due to North Korea’s nuclear weapons program and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
