Russia and North Korea Link by Bridge | Perth News
Description
North Korea and Russia just unveiled their first-ever road bridge across the Tumen River — a mile-long, two-lane link symbolizing a major leap in their deepening alliance. Built after Putin’s 2023 visit, it replaces decades-old plank crossings and will soon connect to Russia’s highway system, enabling hundreds of daily vehicles and boosting trade. Named after a North Korean soldier who allegedly saved Kim Il Sung’s life, the bridge marks a bold new chapter in Russo-North Korean cooperation, especially as both nations tighten ties amid Ukraine’s war. Cargo is already rolling, with passenger traffic expected by year’s end.
