Russia, North Korea commit to defending each other 'without delay' if invaded, provoking South Korean outrage
Fox News ^ | 6/20/2024 | Timothy H.J. Nerozzi

Putin and Kim bonded during the trip, petting dogs and taking turns driving a Russian-manufactured limousine.

Russia has entered into a defensive pact with North Korea that obligates both nations to defend each other from military adversaries "without delay."

Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un signed the landmark agreement on Wednesday in a move that has alarmed Western powers.

"If one of the two sides is placed under war situations due to an armed invasion from an individual country or several nations, the other side provides military and other assistance without delay by mobilizing all means in its possession," the agreement states.

The agreement further cements the growing anti-West power bloc revolving around Russia as regional powers with friendships dating back to the Soviet era — such as Vietnam and China — reaffirm old bonds.

North Korea, officially known as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, was founded in 1948 with direct influence from Soviet dictator Josef Stalin.

The Kim family — sometimes referred to as the Mount Paektu bloodline — is the hereditary dictatorship of the country founded by communist revolutionary Kim Il Sung.

North Korea operates under the state ideology of Juche, a quasi-communist worldview founded on a cult of personality and enthusiastic nationalism.

The world is set up for war. These pacts exists in a lot of places on both sides.

This is like a nuclear armed Mexico making a pact with a nuclear armed Zimbabwe.

Invaded? Not likely. Paper tigerish. And if the Sorks sink a Work ship?

No idea what you're saying. I'm going jet skiing now before it gets too hot out.

While I fully understand South Korea’s concern, they - South Korea - has a similar agreement with the U.s.

However, what it really means is that the U.S. would wind up entering into the defense of South Korea sooner and stronger, should Russia go to the aid of North Korea.

Mexico doesn’t have 5000+ warheads and three new modern delivery systems one of them parked less than 200 miles from D.C.the Kazen carries Zircon hypersonic missiles that can make that flight in 200 seconds or less at Mach 6.

The Norks just bought a strategic arsenal on their side for the low low price of artillery shells to decimate the criminal enterprise known as Ukraine. Good job neocon idiots.

US neocons wanted a proxy war with Russia, and now zeepers are whining that they are in a proxy war with Russia.

Sheer insanity, brought to you by the “military-industial complex” and Joe Biden.

This pact is due to Biden and the Republican neocons needlessly making an enemy of Russia over the Ukraine (by coups, false flags, and sanctions), rather than to common ideology. As such, the pact is likely to wither after the war in Ukraine ends. Without the Ukraine war, Russia would have no interest in what happens to North Korea.

The people of Germany and France want no part of this war in Ukriane with Russia. The government’s of France and several others in the EU are in a state where Macron or the vocal warmongers could be gone very fast. Things are changing politically very fast. Putin gave the West a change before the weekend Z-man photo op. Zelenski has been out of Ukraine now (for a month), since the 21 May Illegimaticy date. The west has rebuffed Russia. Russia is patient... the political situation in the EU is fragile.

N.Korea was a brilliant idea to destabalize Asia. This US Administration is intellectually weak, and their strong card is LGBT, DEI, and Chicago sytled threats - all something Africa and the Asians for the most part want nothing to do with. The shortsighted lack of thinking beyond threats by the US Biden team has turned the US into a laughing stock in the world.

The DNC is destorying American financially. They are destroying the world economic order by lawless activities. They have become thugs on the world stage.

North Korea is not going to collaspe after all the US efforts is isolate them and turn them into another investment opportunity like Ukraine. Now, it will take years, but they will get economic infrastructure, food and military equipment - with just a little bit of effort, Putin has foiled US Plans simply because the Biden Admin are intellectual lightweights.

Totally understand. These new words(Sorks/NORKS) keep getting self-corrected. Gotta type them in twice.

Thanks for keeping us abreast of this situation!

I had NO idea he was hiding out abroad.

Take a look at the first use of the FAB-3000 in Ukriane. The target is several small flat buildings near a large apratment building and other buildings in the vicinity were completely destroyed. The sheer terror of this new defensive position buster is a game changer, to the extent that it follows on the Fab 500s.

Meanwhile, our Media continues to tout the Ukrainian FPV drones and the Switchblade drones.

Pocketknives versus hand grenades.
