Vladimir Putin has written to North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un, proposing a partnership to unify the pariah states against the hostile West.

The alarming kinship has generated worry among security services, who are concerned that their collaboration would have terrible effects. The war-hungry Russian President suggested in a letter that the two work together to develop the comprehensive and constructive bilateral relations via joint efforts.

Putin Voices Support for Kim Jong Un Over Korean Peninsula Issue

To win over the Supreme Leader, Putin also promised to strengthen the security and stability of the Korean peninsula. Kim Jong Un recently lashed out at the new administration in South Korea, threatening to annihilate President Yoon Suk Yeol. The twisted tyrant hailed Putin's offer of friendship, stating that the tie between their countries was created during WWII with victory over Japan.

He went on to argue that authoritarian countries had achieved a new level of strategic and tactical coordination, support, and unification. Kim Jong Un claimed that they were united in their struggle against hostile military forces, a word commonly used to allude to the US and its Western allies.

According to state media source KCNA, Putin's scarlet letter landed in Pyongyang on North Korea's independence day. The coalition of pariah nations comes as Russia's bloody assault on Ukraine proceeds, escalating already strained relations with the West.

North Korea was one of the few countries to recognize two Russian-backed separatist entities in the country's east in July after Putin issued a proclamation declaring them independent. In response, Ukraine severed all diplomatic ties with Pyongyang. It was even stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin was borrowing a page from Kim's book and planned to divide Ukraine into two like North and South Korea. Kim, like Putin, is not afraid to discuss his nuclear arsenal to tease his adversaries.

After their initial encounter in 2019, the duo formed an unusual alliance, well knowing that it would perplex Western leaders. They've remained public acquaintances throughout the years, even engaging in similar PR stunts like riding on horseback to cultivate a comparable hardman image.

Putin even bestowed a top combat medal on Kim Jong Un to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the triumph over Nazi Germany in 2020. Western leaders are well aware of the fearsome combo they may create as the world approaches World War 3, according to The Sun.

Kim Jong Un Hopes Russia-North Korea Cooperations Grow

The North Korean leader also responded in his letter, stating that the Russian-North Korean alliance was created during World War II with victory over Japan, which had colonized the Korean peninsula. Kim Jong Un expressed hope that the 2019 agreement struck when he met with Vladimir Putin will lead to further collaboration between Moscow and Pyongyang.

Russia considers North Korea to be a close friend. It had lately recognized as independent entities two Russian-backed separatists "people's republics" in eastern Ukraine. Furthermore, allegations are circulating that North Korea has offered 100,000 "volunteer" troops to enhance Russia's prospects of invading Ukraine, as per WIO News.

North Korea, which has a rail connection to Russia, has supported Putin's invasion. It is one of the few nations that has recognized the independence of eastern Ukraine's Kremlin-controlled people's republics of Donetsk and Luhansk. North Korea has also been storing artillery for decades, prompting some observers to assume that it may provide Putin with munitions.

According to NK News, Russia's envoy to Pyongyang stated last month that North Korea may be prepared to deploy laborers to the two Russian-controlled breakaway enclaves in Ukraine. North Korea has been sending laborers to Russia and China for years, where they earn hard money that Pyongyang sorely needs.

The United States' drive to isolate Russia over Putin's conflict in Ukraine, along with growing hostility toward China, has allowed North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to build his nuclear deterrence without fear of more UN Security Council sanctions.

There's no possibility that Russia or China, who have veto power in the UN Security Council, will back any sanctions against North Korea, as they did in 2017 after a series of missile launches spurred former President Donald Trump to threaten "fire and fury." In late May, China and Russia rejected a UN Security Council resolution written by the US to increase sanctions against North Korea for its ballistic missile launches this year, Bloomberg via MSN reported.
