Alexandr Matsegora said that the historic visit to Russia made by Kim Jong Un , Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, was an important event.

Noting that the top leaders of the two countries agreed to closely cooperate with each other in the work for ensuring the development of the multifaceted bilateral cooperation and the regional peace and safety, he emphasized that what can never be otherwise is the friendly relations between Russia and the DPRK with a reliable foundation and tradition.
