Russia and the DPRK are combatting common military challenges and threats together, the DPRK's Ambassador to Russia, Sin Hong Chol, said on Thursday. 

At a reception commemorating the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the first intergovernmental agreement on economic and cultural cooperation between the DPRK and Russia, the ambassador said both nations have been interconnected with solidarity and neighborliness and continue walking a path toward "eternal prosperity and a new era directed to the future.” 

Moreover, he emphasized that Russia and the DPRK maintain joint efforts to fight the "common enemy" by "courageously countering challenges and military threats from hostile forces, and strengthening support and solidarity aimed at protecting national security, peace, and dignity."

Sin Hong Chol then affirmed that the Workers' Party of Korea and our government itself are always mobilizing to sustain and enhance relations with Russia "to a new high level." This would also include military cooperation and coordination in the fight against the "common enemy", as the ambassador announced earlier in September.
