while. it's good to have you with us it's been a meeting between all the friends in a new world a world where north korea is straining under the weight of international sanctions and russia is looking to boost its stature on the world stage north korean leader kim jong un and russian president vladimir putin have met in eastern russia and discussed the deed of the korean peninsula this against the backdrop of north korea's failed to talks with the u.s. in february or sanctions relief he has. warned have to say after their meeting in vladivostok. for the threat of nuclear confrontation without a question the international community's common goal is to avoid one. i have the

impression that the north korean leader wants that as well he just needs to be reassured of her safety. but the mission of the soonest. the two countries share a valuable friendship that was created and strengthened while overcoming every hardship and challenge for into is by history have a deep understanding that the ceaseless development of north korea russia ties. interests but is also indispensable for securing the region's peace and stability. of. a friendship and history between the parts of a nation that began during the cold war and has continued since that. similar homage train different to north korean leader with his visit to russia kim jong un is following in his forefathers footsteps his grandfather kim il sung went to the soviet union numerous times to secure moscow's support during the cold war.

his father kim jong il also met with russian presidents the last time was with dmitri medvedev in two thousand and eleven shortly before the korean leader's death . north korea has few friends in the world russia is one of them but they used to be close the soviet union was once pyongyang's main trading partner taking over half its exports today trade is just a trickle worth about two million dollars a year jute international sanctions against north korea's weapons programs taking steps towards each other moscow has called for sanctions to be eased that would allow the restart of trade and joint infrastructure projects which would profit both countries. the first ever meeting between put and kim in front of awestruck could put the diminished alliance back on track. joining us now is on very long call from cooper in university incirlik he's

a professor of history and author of many books on north korea for the land of good to have you with us. the north korean leader kim jong un has met chinese president xi jinping four times in the past year and now he's met a bloody mean putin is this in your view or kiss off kim jong un leaning on old friends to help him out of a deadlock. i felt just awful low but ease it really good and to help him out of bed look sick out of russia and a little scary at have never writes or used to be a long time ago but even saying that elation still quite tense is lost remembers that is it really has one thousand six thousand australian best russian defectives and was right there to buy it nobody else bought you any and all of the if would be k.g.b. chief who provided him this acute sort of a shiver raised in betty that it's right there right now it was all actually

a simpler it's because all sides about for all discussed some relatively minor age it was if they too short to send some messages to washington on bot talking about it kind of c.s. let's stop and giggle it is very much ego boy i would say he is my shins is in the element assistance is money massively is that is going to come out of this now but they did speak about denuclearization and that is something that president putin spoke about in the press conference after that or you have said before professor learned goal of butter north koreans were never surrender their nuclear weapons how effective that is why would russia not speaking about denuclearization. oh grill is necessary to diffuse tension for the beat i would lead to it he might use it every single yukiya out all five fish in

a countless hours on to say official of a geisha it what it was in one nine hundred sixty eight don't release ration treaty to summer and then you have athens eventually not now made a few centuries later russia united states chain as they all have had made such a promise so well moscow as a saying the same maybe they built them even if it can even at that they do to invent a field to save probably means three to four centuries into six and train on. no russian presidential spokesperson best of have said earlier that the storm six party talks are the only route of addressing the issue of denuclearization do you believe that. well it's my day with a year russia is interested because it has the rights of the marginal and is deeply interested in having some kind of multilateral like say japan the same rights and

same situation because as advice all major decisions are going to be made in washington and russia look at their impact on how their future of loss is asia he'll be discussed so it's great nations that's russia somewhat less extent japan and south korea all this guy really would like to have some kind of miles away so talks including six party talks isn't going to get in and no idea because it takes two to tango and base sixty able to have six sites to have six party talks at the end of this size right he's the united states and probably and all that is yours is stick about this idea i suspect. well we'll check back with you if and when there is movement on this issue professor langkow from cooper university in syria thank you very much for speaking to us. right. now let me put in has another major meeting on the agenda of this week the new secret
