Putin thanks North Korea for supporting Ukraine war as Pyongyang displays its nukes in parade
Putin did not go into detail of the nature of Pyongyang’s support in what he called Russia’s “special military operation.” But US officials said last year that North Korea was selling millions of rockets and artillery shells to Russia for use on the battlefield in Ukraine. “Solidarity with Russia on key international issues highlight our common interests,” Putin said in the speech, according to the state-run Korean Central News Agency .
Ms at military parade Putin’s speech came as Pyongyang held a large military parade featuring two models of intercontinental ballistic missiles as part of its armistice commemorations. Hwasong-18 missiles, Pyongyang’s newest solid-fueled Ms, were wheeled into Kim Il Sung Square in the capital followed by the Hwasong-17, a liquid-fueled
M. This is not the first time North Korea has showcased the Hwasong-18, which was last claimed to have been launched on July 12 with a flight time of 74 minutes, the longest ever for a North Korean M. Analysts say the missile likely has the range to target all of the mainland United States. As the parade went on below, North Korea flew versions of a new “strategic reconnaissance drone and the multi-purpose attack drone” overhead, according to KCNA. North Korean Defense Minister Kang Sun Nam declared it a “huge glory” for the North Korean Army Forces and a “great celebration” for all of its people to hold a military parade on the 70th anniversary of the Korean War armistice, KCNA reported.
