“Theatre of the Absurd”: – a hoax
“Western speculation”
Zakharova also says she expects “Western speculation” regarding the visit to North Korea.
– There will be a lot of them. The West always comes up with a narrative that somehow Russia is behaving differently, and that we have no right to communicate with North Korea, she said in the TV interview.
– Russia has every right to do what we consider necessary, says Zakharova.
Diplomatic relations between North Korea and Russia have become increasingly close. In October, Sergei Lavrov was on an official visit to Pyongyang on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the communist regime.
