Description
"Russia is desperate" says military expert Maciej Szopa, with the country's president, Vladimir Putin, set to meet North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un in Vladivostok. According to Szopa, Moscow could receive artillery elements from Pyongyang to support the Russian army in Ukraine. In exchange, he believes North Korea can hope to strengthen its air force with Russian-made aircraft. "We all remember that Iran got fighters... from Russia for Shahid suicide drons" he says, adding that the meeting and circumstances could present "a perfect time" for North Korea to upgrade its forces.
