North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has recently visited Russia, and both sides have shown they intend to cooperate militarily. At the same time, a China–Russia–North Korea alliance is developing, which has caused concerns internationally.
Mr. Kim arrived in Russia on Sept. 12, accompanied by a large number of senior military officials. Russian President Vladimir Putin also went to Vladivostok to attend the Eastern Economic Forum. On Sept. 13, the two met at the Vostochny Cosmodrome—a Russian spaceport—and said that the two countries would cooperate in “sensitive” fields.
