On June 26, South Korean intelligence reported that North Korea attempted to launch a suspected hypersonic missile, which ultimately exploded on the east coast of the Korean Peninsula. Experts believe North Korea's provocative display of military power in response to joint military exercises by the US, Japan, and South Korea may lead Kim Jong-un to request more advanced weapon technology from Russia following the failed missile test. Concerns have been raised globally over the potential exchange of advanced military equipment and technology between Pyongyang and Moscow. Despite denials, the close relationship between Russia and North Korea has triggered fears of enhanced military cooperation, with possible implications for regional security in Northeast Asia.
