Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday thanked North Korea for supporting Moscow’s war on Ukraine as he met visiting Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui.

“I would like once again to express my gratitude for the support provided to the special military operation we are conducting,” Putin said, according to a video released by the Kremlin.

“We will never forget” the “heroic deeds” of North Korean soldiers, who would be “honoured in the same way as our compatriots”, he added, also praising the mutual understanding established with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

Russia’s foreign ministry said on Saturday that Choe was visiting at the invitation of Foreign Minister SergeyLavrov.

Moscow and Pyongyang have deepened ties since Russia launched its full-scale offensive against Ukraine in 2022.
