Mr Putin praised North Korea’s “unwavering support for Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine,” using the Kremlin’s wording to refer to the war, in a letter published in Pyongyang’s official newspaper, Rodong Sinmun.
The Russian leader also thanked North Korea for its solidarity on important international issues.
He added that it was committed, like-minded, and ready to counter the West’s desire to halt the establishment of a multipolar world order.
