At the recent inauguration ceremony for the Battle Merit Memorial in North Korea, a Russian delegation led by the Speaker of the State Duma and the Minister of Defense mentioned a mid-to-long-term military cooperation plan. This appears to signify collaboration on key strategic assets mentioned by Kim Jong Un at the Party Congress earlier this year, including submarine-launched ICBMs, attack UAVs, and satellite-attack weaponry. This signifies the concretization of military cooperation between North Korea and Russia, posing a tangible and specific threat to the Korean Peninsula through the integration of advanced technologies. It is expected to reshape the balance of power in Northeast Asia, significantly strengthening North Korea’s negotiating leverage against the U.S. and South Korea, while substantially enhancing Russia’s influence across the region.
