The Russian Federation proposed China and North Korea to conduct joint naval training-the media

South Korea reported that such actions would be a response to South Korea and the United States joint military exercises under the name of the Ulchi Freedom Shield, which were held from August 21 to August 31. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu suggested that the DPRK leader to conduct trilateral military naval training with China. This was stated by the director of the National Intelligence Service of South Korea Kim Ke, writes Yonhap News Agency.

Shoigu was reported that he visited the DPRK from July 25 to July 27. According to a representative of the ruling party "People's Power" by San Bom, these actions will be a response to joint military exercises of South Korea and the United States under the name "Shield of Freedom of Ulchi", which were held from 21 to 31 August. The publication writes that South Korea intelligence has confirmed 2 launches by North Korea Ballistic missiles last week. However, only one launch was successful.

Although in Pyongyang they talked about the opposite. We will remind that at the end of July Western experts rated the Shoig's trip to North Korea. Moscow and Pyongyang pursue their own strategic goals. Political support from the nuclear states and members of the UN Security Council is important for the Kim Jong -in regime, and the prospect of supplying the necessary weapons and ammunition opens for the Russian Federation.
