Forging a New Alliance: The Strategic Impact of Putin’s Meeting with Kim Jong-un (Part 2 of 2)
Despite Western expectations, Russia has not (yet) abandoned UN sanctions on North Korea. Instead, both nations are exploring creative ways to reinterpret and circumvent these sanctions, focusing on sectors such as education, health, and science. The deployment of North Korean workers in Russia, particularly in construction, illustrates a pragmatic approach to bypassing economic restrictions while enhancing bilateral cooperation. One gets the sense that if escalation from Washington and its vassals continues, Russia would drop the enforcement of UN sanctions against Pyongyang.
A significant development is the plan to construct a new highway corridor between North Korea and Russia. This infrastructure project will facilitate more efficient trade and movement, enhancing economic ties and promoting regional stability. Such practical benefits of the strategic partnership demonstrate the tangible outcomes of this alliance.
The West’s reaction to this burgeoning alliance has been predictably alarmist. The inevitability of closer military cooperation between Russia and North Korea smashes the existing balance of power in Northeast Asia. South Korea, in particular, may find itself under increased pressure from Washington to align more closely with US and NATO policies, potentially straining its relations with Russia.
The strategic partnership between Moscow and Pyongyang also poses a challenge to the existing UN sanctions regime. Western accusations of Russia aiding North Korea could lead to attempts to further isolate Russia on the international stage. However, with declining trust in UN structures and the diminishing influence of the US, these efforts will prove futile. It’s the former colonial powers that look very isolated these days.
This new alliance marks a paradigm shift in Eurasian security. It signifies the erosion of US hegemony in Northeast Asia and the rise of a multipolar, multi-nodal world order. China’s quiet reaction to the summit suggests implicit approval of this development, aligning with Beijing’s broader strategic interests in the region. The board continues to take shape with clarity: Moscow, Beijing, and Pyongyang standing as a bulwark against futile last-ditch hissy fits by a defeated Washington.
The Russia-North Korea partnership exemplifies a broader trend of connectivity and cooperation in Eurasia. It underscores the failure of the West’s strategy to isolate Russia economically and politically. Despite unprecedented economic warfare, Russia has emerged as the world’s fourth-largest economy (PPP), thriving while Western economies face stagnation and social disintegration, a result of their own suicidal sanctions.
The meeting between Putin and Kim Jong-un is a clear signal that global power dynamics are shifting. The West, led by the US and its vassals, has failed in its attempt to isolate and defeat Russia. Instead, Russia is forging stronger alliances and expanding its influence in Asia. This new era of cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang is not just a regional development; it is a cornerstone in the construction of a new, more-just world order. The implications for security, economic stability, and geopolitical strategy are profound. As the sun sets on American hegemony, the dawn of a multipolar world rises, where the old rules of domination no longer apply. The West is left to reckon with its (cosmic) strategic miscalculations and the inevitable reconfiguration of power.

Well, well a turn up for the book but not a surprise at all . Sue Mi Terry , a former CIA agent and so-called "north Korea expert " ( and part of the NKNews gang ) got caught out by the US as she was indicted for breaking the rules on receiving payments from other countries . Ms Terry is alleged to have received $37,000 from south Korea and designer handbags.
The Sue Mi Terry scandal is just the tip of the iceberg and proves what I have been saying all along , that the so-called 'north Korea experts ' and media pundits are really paid by south Korea. There exist shadowy cabals of anti-DPRK propagandaists who pose as 'north Korea experts ' and supposedly are independent but in fact are paid by south Korea or the CIA or both .This includes NKNews who pretend that they are "independent .
For years and years south Korea has paid the so-called 'experts ' on the DPRK who just regurgitate whatever the SK puppets tell them . I know of at least 3 or 4 British academics who are funded by south Korea and some British universities receive south Korean funding.

I was told a story once that back in the early 1990s south Korea invited British Labour MPs and gave them Rolex watches and Hyundai cars.
Another story I was told is that the British Museum got donations from south Korean businessmen and downgraded a visit to the museum by a delegation from the DPRK .
The truth will out .

The military-industrial complex of the DPRK has recently been actively increasing both its production capacity and the production of anti-tank systems and missiles for them, writes the NK News Portal. Including the widely discussed today Bulsae-4 .
Among the places where the growing production of new launchers and missiles is allegedly in full swing at an enterprise whose size has grown significantly in recent times is the Sinuiju city area.
Estimates are made based on analysis of recent satellite images.
The authors associate this activity with possible work for export to Russia . But at the same time they recognize that this could equally likely just be work to urgently update the KPA arsenals.
Picture of rumoured Bulsae-4.
