주요내용 This passage could have been simply referring back to the “cooperation” (details were not revealed) the two defense ministers discussed last summer. It could be along the lines of Shoigu’s alleged proposal on joint military drills, or, worse yet, it could refer to some form of military intervention. We should also recall the Russian External Intelligence Bureau chief’s rare visit to North Korea in March. Could North Korea-Russia cooperation on intelligence extend to the military domain?

The agreement (or a treaty) North Korea and Russia sign during Putin’s visit, if made public, will hopefully bring clarity to this phrase.
