In a congratulatory telegram to Vladimir Putin on the occasion of Russia Day, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un called the Russian president his dearest friend and comrade – hailing the blood-forged comradeship between the states, KCNA reports. He noted that Russia is a “fraternal state,” and traditional DPRK-Russia friendship “has been further cemented thanks to the militant comradeship the service personnel of the two countries have forged at the cost of their blood in the just sacred war to defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Russia.” In April, Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Valery Gerasimov, reported to Russian President Vladimir Putin, particularly highlighting the assistance of the DPRK in defeating the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region. Putin thanked the units of the Korean People's Army that participated in defeating the Ukrainian fighters who invaded the Kursk border area, noting that they performed their duty with honor and bravery, earning them undying glory.
