Earlier in July, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu visited the DPRK and met with leader Kim Jong Un in Pyongyang, during which the two sides discussed security and defense issues.

The minister conducted a three-day visit at the invitation of the DPRK's Ministry of Defense to participate in events commemorating the 70th anniversary of Victory Day celebrating the country's successful war against US-led forces.

The news agency indicated that Shoigu and Kim discussed "matters of mutual concern in the field of national defense and security and on the regional and international security environment," pointing out that both sides' positions on the files discussed were in line.

In the same context, the DPRK state media revealed that Kim gave the Russian Defense Minister a tour of the country's newest and most advanced weaponry.

Photographs in state media showed Kim walking Shoigu through a vast defense exhibition showcasing Pyongyang's nuclear missiles and a collection of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
