The ratification instruments of the Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the Russian Federation signed by the heads of state of the two countries in Pyongyang on June 19, 2024 were exchanged in Moscow on December 4.

Vice-Foreign Minister of the DPRK Kim Jong Gyu and Vice-Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Andrei Yurievich Rudenko signed the protocol on exchange of ratification instruments.

The treaty has an effect from December 4, 2024 when the ratification instruments were exchanged according to Article 22 of the treaty.

Thereby, the treaty of friendship, good neighborliness and cooperation between the DPRK and the Russian Federation concluded on February 9, 2000 became ineffective.

The treaty serves as a legal framework for realizing the far-reaching plan of the state leadership of the two countries and the desire of the two peoples by putting the bilateral relations on a new strategic level and building a powerful state while firmly defending the regional and global security environment in conformity with the common interests.

The mighty DPRK-Russia relations based on the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership will be a powerful security device that promotes the wellbeing of the peoples of the two countries, eases the regional situation and guarantees international strategic stability, and will serve as a strong driving force accelerating the establishment of independent and just multi-polarized world order without domination, subjugation and hegemony.
