The communist leaders of China and North Korea recently exchanged messages to reaffirm their historical alliance in fighting against “hostile forces,” according to Chinese and North Korean media. North Korea also fired missiles for a second time since President Joe Biden took office.

North Korea’s official media, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), reported on March 23 that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Chinese leader Xi Jinping had exchanged remarks the day before. Kim called for strengthening “unity and cooperation” with China in order to meet the challenges of “hostile forces,” the report said.
