Sergei Shoigu has arrived in Pyongyang. This is his second known visit to the DPRK in the capacity of Secretary of the Russian Security Council, not Minister of Defense.
He is expected to meet with a number of top officials, including head of state Kim Jong-un.

Russia and North Korea will soon begin construction of a road bridge over the Tumen river between the two countries, Russia's ambassador to Pyongyang was quoted as saying by state news agency RIA.
The bridge was agreed during a visit by President Putin to North Korea in 2024 when the two countries signed a comprehensive strategic partnership agreement.
The road bridge will be built near the existing "Friendship Bridge" rail bridge which was commissioned in 1959 after the Korean war. An ancient wooden bridge used to cross the border in the early 20th century but it was destroyed, according to Russian media.
The road bridge, which has been under discussion for years, will be 850 metres (2789 ft) and link up with the Russian highway system.
South Korean satellite imagery analysis firm SI Analytics said in a March 5 report that work on the bridge's foundations and road links appeared to have begun.
"With the rapid construction of this bridge following the existing rail link, the only passage between North Korea and Russia, a sharp increase in economic, social, and military exchanges is anticipated," the report said.
"This could potentially lead to a gradual erosion of the effectiveness of international sanctions against North Korea and Russia."
Why should any country care if two sovereign countries are building a bridge.

"We have signed an agreement [on mutual defense]. Work with this country is also underway in the military-technical and military spheres," the president noted.
Putin also stated that Russia will work with any partners who want to facilitate a Ukrainian settlement, including the DPRK and the BRICS countries.

THE MYTH OF DPR KOREA’S ISOLATIONISM - By Comrade Kimlong Ly
For decades, Western imperialist powers have spread the false narrative that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) is a hermit nation or sometimes slandered and labelled unjustly as “the hermit kingdom”. However, The DPRK, in reality, is far from isolated.

Årets andra nummer av Korea-information är tryckt och på väg till föreningens medlemmar och andra intresserade. Innehållet avspeglar den snabba dynamiska utvecklingen i Demokratiska Folkrepubliken Korea (DFRK), men också den oroliga situationen på och kring Koreahalvön, särskilt i samband med USA:s och Sydkoreas gemensamma krigsövningar. I tidningen finns också kommentarer om medias förvrängda bild av de nordkoreanska soldaterna i Ryssland. Påståendena om att nordkoreanska hackare lagt beslag på miljarder i kryptovaluta granskas. Och sist konstaterar vi att DFRK är världens starkaste land – inom tyngdlyftning.

Välkommen på årsmöte i Svensk-Koreanska föreningen
Tid: 12 april 2025 kl 12.00
Plats: Fjärde Långgatan 8B, Göteborg
Efter årsmötet inbjuder Svensk-Koreanska föreningen till öppet medlemsmöte. (Ta gärna med bekanta!) Vi kommer då få höra om DFR Koreas försiktiga återöppnande för turism, efter en lång tids stängning p.g.a. Covid-19. Västerländska turister har precis börjat släppas in till området Rason i nordost, medan Pyongyang fortfarande är stängt för svenska turister. Julia Dalard, på resebyrån Koreakonsult, har dock sedan en tid ordnat gruppresor för ryska turister och hon kommer vid vårt möte att berätta om sina intryck från dessa resor.

KFA UK Responds to the trendy liberal vloggers
Our attention has been drawn to all kinds of reports and videos being circulated by some privileged and entitled middle class visitors to the DPRK . Here we will answer some of the things they saud . We will focus on one such person who goes by the name of Harry Jaggard(is this a made up name ) who made two videos “Pack your bags boys, I'm running in North Korea” and “ Inside North Korea – The Strangest Country on Earth 🇰🇵” .
In both videos , Jaggard constantly refers to the DPRK as “North Korea “ instead of by its proper title , the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea or DPRK for short or People’s Korea . Jaggard’s first video is full of orientalist cliches about the DPRK using words like “surreal “ and “secretive “ ( if the DPRK is so secretive, why has such a hostile person as Harry Jaggard been let in ) . Jaggard trots out the usual mainstream media /elite narrative about the DPRK being a “dictatorship “ and “ oppressive “ etc and ignores the actual reality of the DPRK in front of him . Did Mr Jaggard see any actual evidence of oppression in the DPRK such as the police beating people up and dragging them off the streets or pointing guns at people’s heads (which this writer actually saw in one country he visited but not in the DPRK ) . Where were the massive “concentration camps “ that the Western media tell us exist ? There was no sign of them in Mr Jaggard’s video !
In fact, far from being “oppressive “ and a “dictatorship “, the DPRK’s democracy is second to none .Respected Marshal KIM JONG UN is a genuine people’s leader who is elected by the people and supported by them . In capitalist countries governments are elected by a minority of the electorate whereas in the DPRK they are backed by 100 per cent of the electorate . The DPRK is a democracy from the top to the bottom; from the Supreme People’s Assembly down to the local people’s committees and people’s neighbourhood units.
Jaggard even says after visiting the Kangdong Greenhouse Farm “ that everyone is starving “ his own videos show that this is simply not true . In fact in the DPRK everyone is supplied with basic foods at low cost so no one starves .
However , one myth is broken by Mr Jaggard’s video ; that there is no internet in the DPRK as it is clearly shown that there is internet access in the DPRK at the Grand People’s Study House (and other places ).
Overall Mr Jaggard comes across as gormless , ignorant , silly and flippant . He wrongly calls the Grand People’s Study House in Pyongyang , the DPRK National Library ( and includes a clip where he supposedly receives an email from Marshal KIM JONG UN , of course this is not true ). He talks about “Korean Nationalist Party “ music but no party with such a name exists in the DPRK . This shows Mr Jaggard as a truly ignorant man lacking in any understanding .
Lastly the title of one of Mr Jaggard’s videos “The Strangest Country on Earth” is simply a cliched demonisation of the DPRK . What is strange about a country that is clean , that lacks vandalism and graffiti , that has no beggars or homeless and has free education , free health care plus free housing ? . Surely a strange country is one where the homeless sleep on the streets but there are empty houses and also people with second or third homes or a country that imports products like steel and coal which it could easily produce at home ?
Our KFA UK Chairman Dr Dermot Hudson visited the DPRK last year in April and was the first British visitor to the DPRK for 5 years but the mainstream media ignored his account and instead focussed on hostile vloggers like Mr Jaggard.
Supporters of People’s Korea should ignore the twaddle of the likes of Harry Jaggard and read accounts of people like Dr Hudson.
