Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit North Korea on an official state visit beginning on Tuesday, the Kremlin said on Monday.
Putin will spend two days in North Korea before traveling to Vietnam, the Kremlin said. The diplomatic trip follows North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s visit to Russia in September 2023.
Kim during that visit had “cordially” invited Putin to visit North Korea at a “convenient time,” the Korean Central News Agency, a state-run media outlet, reported at the time.
