During a visit to North Korea on June 19, Russian President Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un signed a treaty pledging immediate military support in case of armed invasion. Putin later hinted at the possibility of providing weapons to North Korea in response to the West arming Ukraine, while reassuring South Korea that they need not worry about the new treaty, stating they are not planning to invade North Korea. The treaty has raised tensions, with Russia considering supplying weapons to Ukraine. Putin warned South Korea against providing weapons to Ukraine, emphasizing the consequences. U.S. officials expressed disbelief at Putin's statements and raised concerns about the stability of the Korean Peninsula. The potential alliance between Russia and North Korea is viewed with caution, as it could lead to destabilization and encourage North Korea to engage in provocative actions.
