North Korean Foreign Minister Choi Song-hee arrives in Moscow on an official visit. This became known on July 18 from a message on the website of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

"At the invitation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Choi Song-hee arrives in the Russian Federation on an official visit on July 18," the statement said.

Choi Song-hee previously stated that Moscow and Pyongyang, being allies, have a common opinion on all strategic issues. The North Korean Foreign Minister added that the parties, consistently defending their common interests, are making progress in both comprehensive and bilateral contacts.

On March 25, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un sent a telegram to Russian President Vladimir Putin, in which he assured that Pyongyang would always be close to Moscow. This decision, he stressed, is the choice and unchanging will of his entire people.

On March 26, Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov announced agreements reached by Russia on long-term military cooperation with the DPRK. At the same time, he announced that the current year would be full of bilateral contacts in a number of areas.
