Russian and North Korean protection ministers pledged to develop bilateral relations as they met in Pyongyang on Wednesday.
“I am glad to meet and get to know you, and I gratefully took advantage of your invitation to visit Pyongyang, the capital of a friendly state, and I am grateful to my Korean friends for the rich program offered,” Sergei Shoigu stated as he began the assembly with Kang Sun-nam.
“We have an opportunity not only to work actively but also to learn a lot of interesting things about the DPRK (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea), your culture, traditions and sights,” he stated.
The Russian army delegation arrived in North Korea on Tuesday to participate within the celebrations devoted to the seventieth anniversary of the victory of the Korean individuals within the Patriotic Liberation War.
“I am convinced that today’s talks will contribute to strengthening cooperation between our defense departments,” Shoygu stated, including that bilateral cooperation strengthened within the post-war interval.
“The visits of warships, official visits of high-ranking representatives of defense departments, exchanges of delegations at the working level, training of personnel contributed to the preservation of peace and stability on the Korean peninsula,” the Russian protection chief stated.
He pressured that the DPRK is a vital companion of Russia, with which it’s related by a wealthy historical past of cooperation and a standard border.
