Kim and Putin’s defense pact allows full assistance if either is attacked.


North Korea and Russia have agreed to provide immediate military assistance in the event of an attack on either country, according to a new defense pact signed by their leaders. Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un signed this strategic partnership agreement during Putin’s rare state visit to Pyongyang, describing it as a significant milestone in bilateral relations akin to their Cold War-era mutual defense pledge of 1961. This agreement, amidst Putin’s ongoing conflict in Ukraine, strengthens North Korea’s ties with a major world power that holds veto power at the UN Security Council.

The full text of the pact, published by North Korean state media KCNA, outlines cooperation in political, trade, investment, and security realms. Notably, Article 4 commits both nations to provide military and other assistance immediately should either face armed aggression.

After their meeting, Putin emphasized the pact’s defense clause, highlighting mutual assistance in case of aggression against either party. Kim hailed the agreement as a pivotal moment in bilateral relations, though analysts view it more as a formal defense treaty than a partnership agreement.

The pact’s “automatic intervention clause” mandates mobilization of military assets, including army, navy, and air force, in response to aggression. Details on specific military intervention provisions remain limited, prompting calls for close monitoring of North Korea and Russia’s military activities.
