Kim Jong Un gladly received Sergei Shoigu and shared with him the joy of meeting again after the lapse of one year. Then he had a talk with the Russian guest in a friendly, trustworthy and warm atmosphere.

Sergei Shoigu courteously conveyed the friendly greetings from Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, president of the Russian Federation, to the DPRK leader.

Kim Jong Un expressed his thanks for it and conveyed his warm greetings to the respected Russian president.

At the talk, there was a wide-ranging exchange of views on the issues of steadily deepening the strategic dialogue between the two countries and strengthening cooperation to defend the mutual security interests and on the regional and international situations.
