As Putin begins his visit to North Korea, both Moscow and Pyongyang hope the meeting with Kim Jong Un will strengthen their relationship, as both countries are isolated by most of the world. The talks between the two leaders are expected to result in a series of economic and military cooperation agreements, including trade deals on weapons, advanced missiles, and satellite technology, which may be kept strictly confidential. The meeting is also seen as an opportunity for Kim Jong Un to elevate his status as a world leader and for Putin to show that Russia still has friends and allies despite international sanctions and arrest warrants. The visit is described as a victory for Kim Jong Un, helping solidify his domestic legitimacy and showcasing cooperation between the two countries.
