Kim Jong Un Pledges Support for Russia and Warns US Over Taiwan

Geopolitics14 days ago

The government in Pyongyang has vowed to provide its political and strategic backing to Moscow to strengthen the defense alliance between the two nations on Oct. 6. This commitment from Kim Jong Un marks a deeper military alignment aimed at countering Western influence, according to reporting from Reuters.

Alongside the pledge to Russia, North Korea's state news agency KCNA urged the US to stop opposing Beijing's interests and end its military assistance to Taiwan. The announcement warned Washington to "think twice" about its regional posture, citing potential consequences for confronting China over the self-governing island.
