In their first meeting, Kim and Putin exchanged gifts but few specifics on how to achieve the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
Analysts said Russia has little to offer by way of direct investment or aid, given the international sanctions placed on North Korea in retaliation for its nuclear and ballistic missile programs. Russia, along with China, has made the case before the United Nations Security Council that those sanctions should be eased in exchange for incremental steps by North Korea to denuclearize., which severely limit oil imports and block many of the country’s key exports, including textiles and seafood.
On Thursday, Kim appeared to nevertheless make a strong appeal to Putin for his support in the stalled nuclear talks, saying Russians had shed blood for the “liberation of the Korean people.” Putin also emphasized the nations’ long history, repeatedly mentioning their 70-year diplomatic relationship. He told reporters he found Kim to be “a rather open person.”
