"Neutrally painted": Putin hid the details of Kim Jong -in's visit to the Russian Federation so as not to reinforce the sanctions

According to ISW analysts, Russia has fears of imposing additional international sanctions against the country through potential trade with North Korea. Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely to be concerned about the possible consequences of a public announcement of Russia's cooperation with North Korea, as this can lead to increased sanctions and violation of the existing mechanisms of their bypass. This is stated in an analytical review of the American Institute of War Study (ISW).

"Probably Putin neutrally painted his meeting with Kim," analysts emphasize. It is noted that in the Russian Federation there are concerns about the risk of introducing secondary international sanctions against Russia due to possible trade with North Korea. This can also lead to increased international control over Russia's evasion. In addition, in ISW, Russia does not seek to show too much interest in buying North Korean ammunition.

Earlier, the media wrote that the United States was ready to "react" if the DPRK supplies weapons to the Russian Federation. According to Matthew Miller's State Department, states have already imposed sanctions against organizations that facilitated armed agreements between North Korea and Russia. American journalists also reported that the meeting of Putin and Kim Jong -in shows how the war affects the foreign policy of the Russian Federation.
