South Korea Summons Russian Ambassador Over Defense Pact with North Korea

ai generated text

South Korea's foreign ministry has taken diplomatic action in response to Russia and North Korea signing a mutual defense pact. The agreement was met with concern from Japan, the United States, and South Korea itself, which summoned the Russian ambassador to express its disapproval. According to reports, First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Hong-kyun urged Russia to "act responsibly" during the meeting with Ambassador Georgy Zinoviev. This development comes amidst ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine, with some analysts suggesting that the pact may be a strategic move by North Korea to strengthen its position in the region.

    1. And we see what's happening in Asia, right? The block system is being cobbled together in Asia. NATO is already moving there as a permanent place of residence. This, of course, creates a threat for all countries in the region, including the Russian Federation. We are obliged to respond to this and will do so.
    2. As far as I know, the Republic of Korea does not plan aggression against the DPRK, which means there is no need to be afraid of our cooperation in this area.

    1. I wonder what the people of this country (South Korea) will say when they see the latest Russian weapons from their closest neighbors – our partners from the DPRK?
