Published 1 week ago
Description

Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko and North Koreas Kim Jong Un strengthened ties during Lukashenkos first visit to Pyongyang, both nations key allies of Russias Vladimir Putin. North Korea has supported Russia in Ukraine, while Belarus hosted Russian tactical nuclear weapons near NATO borders. Despite international sanctions, Lukashenko received a warm welcome, including a hug from Kim and a visit to the mausoleum honoring Kims grandfather and father. The visit comes after Lukashenko met with a Trump envoy and freed political prisoners, potentially opening the door for fresh U.S. outreach while maintaining close ties with Russia.
