North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin exchanged greetings Saturday to mark the 75th anniversary of Korea's liberation from Japanese occupation, according to Pyongyang's state media.
In their messages, the two men expressed their desire to further deepen bilateral ties based on an agreement for cooperation reached during their first summit in Russia's Far East city of Vladivostok in April last year, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported.
The KCNA said Kim conveyed in his message that cooperative relations between the two countries "would steadily grow strong at a higher level" based on the summit agreement.
Kim also wished Putin "bigger success in his responsible work" of building a powerful Russia, and for the prosperity of its people.
The KCNA quoted Putin as saying that the North Korea-Russia agreement "contributes to further developing the reciprocal cooperation and promoting peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and throughout the Northeast Asia region."
Kim traveled to the Russian border town of Vladivostok in 2019 for his first-ever summit with Putin, at which they agreed to boost bilateral cooperation in various areas. (Yonhap)
