Kim Jong-un extended his congratulations to Putin on the anniversary of Russia's national day.
In a friendly gesture, the one and only Kim Jong Un, across the DMZ, sent some heartfelt kudos to Vlad the Invader, aka Vladimir Putin, on Russia Day. That's right, the North Korean leader showed Putin some love, according to the North Korean Central News Agency.
In his telegram, Kim Jong Un, speaking for the government and people of North Korea, sent a warm shout-out to the President, government, and the folk of "friendly Russia." He wishfully expressed his hopes for Putin's good health, ongoing success, and a prosperous future for all Russians.
"I'm feeling super positive about the Korean-Russian relationship evolving further, thanks to our history-making first meeting in Vladivostok," declared Kim Jong Un, feeling optimistic about the diplomatic rapport between the two nations.
He pointed out that both countries are working together to maintain and develop their friendship, respecting the rich and traditional history connecting them in the new era.
While the nitty-gritty of the telegram is under wraps, these types of diplomatic exchanges typically strengthen political relations and show solidarity between leaders. It's no surprise that a man like Kim Jong Un, who isn't shy about showing off his political support, would reach out to Putin in this manner.
And, as if that wasn't enough, things are looking up for cooperation between the two countries. With deepening military ties and efforts to expand the relationship into economic, societal, and cultural areas, it seems that the bond between North Korea and Russia is becoming stronger by the day. In fact, some experts predict that Russia may push for relief from sanctions on North Korea, further increasing bilateral cooperation and easing tensions.
So, it looks like the Kim-Putin double act is taking their relationship to the next level, which could spell big things for diplomacy in the region. As always, though, only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing situation.
