West Coast Exchange, North Korea Watcher Conference, Sept. 2026

Comrade Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, President of the Russian Federation on a state visit to the Democratic People ’ s Republic of Korea, laid a wreath at the Liberation Tower on June 19.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un , General Secretary of the Workers ’  Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the DPRK, came to the Liberation Tower to greet Comrade Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.

The guard of honour of the Korean People ’ s Army lined up at the tower.

The national anthems of the Russian Federation and the DPRK were played.

A wreath in the name of Comrade Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin was laid before the tower amid the playing of the wreath-laying music.

Comrades  Kim Jong Un  and Putin paid a silent tribute to the memory of the fallen fighters of the Soviet Army who unhesitatingly dedicated their precious lives to the sacred war for Korea ’ s liberation with a noble sense of mission for the cause of internationalism.

There took place a march-past of the guard of honour of the KPA.

The militant comradeship and friendship between the armies and peoples of the two countries that were forged with blood will be immortal and the noble self-sacrificing spirit displayed by the fine sons and daughters of the Russian people and their merits will be cherished in the memory of the Korean people forever along with the Liberation Tower.
