The United States has expressed concern over the strengthening of relations between Russia and North Korea as Russian President Vladimir Putin prepares to visit North Korea today, Tuesday, to sign significant documents, according to the Washington Times.
White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby stated, 'What worries us is the strengthening of the relationship between these two countries, not only because of its impact on the Ukrainian people—we know that North Korean ballistic missiles are still being used to strike Ukrainian targets—but also because any exchange between them could affect the security of the Korean Peninsula.'
