Russian President Vladimir Putin is scheduled to visit North Korea from Tuesday to Thursday, marking his first trip to the country since July 2000. The two-day visit will include a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and is expected to further cement their growing military cooperation. According to some reports, the pair will pledge support for each other, rebuffing US-led efforts.
