so kim jong un really liked him, legit. and i said i can get these guys out of harvard government and central casting, they couldn't do anything with kim jong un, a guy like dennis could. i didn't use dennis for it but i thought about a couple of times before i got to know kim jong un. but dennis would have done a better job than your traditional people. your traditional ivy league people that always do that stuff and they have no personality. but kim jong un liked him, you know, he coached their basketball team and he did, i asked him about that and he said, i like dennis. >> you asked kim jong un? >> yeah, i asked him. he liked him. and by the way, dennis liked him, too. >> i mean, i don't even know if the looking glass does it, i mean this is someone who murders his own people, i mean, this is one of the most brutal dictatorships in the world, represents a growing threat to this country with a new alliance with putin and trump is so cavalier about it, he thinks dennis is better than anyone who has studied north korea's ca

for kim jong-un, what is it? provision of food and fuel and medicine, all of the things that the north koreans ran out of during the 3 1/2 your covid lockdown. in the long-term it is this trade of ammunition to russia in return for high-end defense technology, whether we talk about military satellites, nuclear weapons or intercontinental ballistic missiles. in the end i think that is the game kim jong-un is playing and he feels like he has russia over a barrel, because as you said, putin needs his ammunition to fight the war in ukraine. >> one last question for you before i let you go. is this something the u.s. is very concerned about or concerned about? >> so i think when there was the first initial sale of a smaller amount of ammunition to the wagner group, they were concerned about this pact. they are very concerned about this relationship because it has an impact on the battlefield in europe, the korean peninsula and potentially u.s. homeland security if north korea gets high-end icbms from russia. >> thank y

and if you remember, kim jong-un went and russia met with putin last fall in september. and two months after they successfully launched a satellite or so when they failed to do so previously. so then there was also a question of okay. north korea of supplying russia with weapons. but what what is russia now supplying russia? north korea width. so now they meet and now they have this treaty. >> this is very big deal in vladimir putin was asked about cooperation on atomic issues. he said nobody's asked for, they haven't asked for anything that is obviously the biggest concern i would think yes. >> put in giving since the military technology. and there's a lot the russians can provide because north korea is right now, david, david advancing their program, devyn diversifying, expanding their missile capability, but they need a lot of sensitive technologies to really perfect. their capability. and that's what can we'll be looking for from putin and the key question is whether putin will do that or not he has some reasons not to do that. he doesn't want to just keep away sensi

kim jong un welcomed vladimir putin yesterday. el to run the country's primitive power plants. kim called putin "the dearest friend of the korean people." it sounds like kim has already forgotten this guy. >> i got a very beautiful letter from kim jong un. he really wrote a beautiful three-page i mean right from top to bottom, a really beautiful letter. we fell in love, okay? no, really. he wrote me beautiful letters and they're great letters. we fell in love. >> it is no longer easy to say that kim jong un is crazier than vladimir putin because at least kim jong un ■çhas not launched a war that north korea cannot win against south korea. today kim and putin tried their best imitation of serious world leaders by signing an agreement that they claim is a pledge for each country to assist the other in the event of aggression from another country. according to "the new york times" translation, vladimir putin said, "this is a truly breakthrough document reflecting the desire of the two countries not to rest on their laurels." good idea

this is a very big deal for him. >> yeah, and we know why putin is relying on kim jong-un for munitionst he's been using and his orb attrition and ukraine for kim jong-un, though, what would be the biggest prize that he could get out of the russian leader? >> he has not sent 10,000 containers of artillery shells and munitions and ballistic missiles. so as for food and fuel i believe that kim jong-un is looking for something much more significant, and that's sensitive military technology two so advance his already very formidable weapons of mass destruction. here's missile program. so he's looking for sensitive technologies, will see if putin won't give it to kim jong-un. but i think that's walking down on its be looking for and it doesn't seem like the version later i was very much leverage. i mean, we kind of see this change in the balance of that relation and chip from what, from what it used to be. it's a little sad that putin has to rely on 198th ranked economy in the world to help him in his war effort in ukraine. >> but it is true that he goes through some 20,000 shells or de, he

and so right now, it's crucial to continue to grow that relationship with kim jong un. but also the welcome that he received something the supersized socialist celebration that he's not going to find almost anywhere else in the world. much of the west, certainly regarding him as a global pariah one thing that strikes me wolf is that those north korean people waving those flags. yes, of course, they're compelled to be out there by their neighborhood leaders and whatnot to line the streets by the hundreds of thousands. but also in north korea is arguably more restricted now than it has possibly ever been, or at least since the cold war, people there have no idea of the realities of putin's brutal war in ukraine because their state media only tells them this glossy version. and so they, they genuinely might look at somebody letting vladimir putin as a strong hero, unaware of the true reality of what muscle so the world thinks of him. now he's landed here in hanoi and has matthew mentioned, it's all business here. certainly the vnet vietnamese are not thrilled by the fact t
