In a rare diplomatic visit, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made a noteworthy appearance at Russia's embassy in Pyongyang alongside his daughter, signaling a reinforcement of the historically strong alliance between North Korea and Russia.

The visit came as Russia commemorated the 80th anniversary of its World War Two victory. Kim Jong Un reaffirmed North Korea's commitment to nurturing the 'invincible alliance' with Russia.

These developments follow North Korea's unprecedented military support in Russia's ongoing conflict with Ukraine, a move that has drawn Pyongyang and Moscow closer amid international sanctions and isolation.
