Kim Jong Un Pledges Unwavering Support for Russia in 'Sacred War'
(MENAFN) North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has pledged unwavering backing for Russia and voiced confidence in a Russian victory in what he called a "sacred war," state media reported Tuesday.
Kim delivered the remarks in a message sent Sunday to Russian President Vladimir Putin,
responding to Putin's congratulations marking the 78th anniversary of the founding of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, according to a state-run Korean news agency.
"Being firmly convinced of the victory of the Russian Federation in the present sacred war to defend the national security interests and the international justice, I promise my invariable support to you, dear friend, and the fraternal Russian people," Kim said.
He added that North Korea and Russia were "continuously writing a new biography of the great history of alliance," while deepening their unity and "protecting justice and peace together."
Kim further stated that his government's resolve to "expand and deepen" cooperation with Moscow remained "steadfast without doubt," pointing to the two nations' long traditions of friendship, good neighborliness and mutual assistance.
Ties between Pyongyang and Moscow have deepened markedly since the two countries signed a comprehensive strategic partnership treaty in June 2024 — an agreement that includes a mutual defense clause obligating each side to provide military assistance should the other come under armed attack.
