In the latest sign of rapidly warming ties, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held talks in Pyongyang this week with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, hailing what he said was a 'qualitatively new strategic level' in bilateral relations.

Mr. Lavrov did not detail what “strategic” meant and details on his meeting with Mr. Kim have not emerged. But embattled Russia and isolated North Korea have found common cause facing off against U.S.-led democracies worldwide. The Kremlin has denied breaching U.N. sanctions, but Mr. Lavrov’s trip underscored the lack of leverage the U.S. and its allies have to influence either Russia or North Korea these days.
Mr. Lavrov warned his hosts Wednesday about what he called Japanese and U.S. “hegemony” in the region and called Russia’s invasion of Ukraine “a war that the West, led by the United States, has unleashed against the Russian Federation with the direct involvement of an overtly Nazi Ukrainian regime.” Pyongyang is believed to maintain massive stocks of the Warsaw Pact-ear munitions still used by Russia’s army, including 152mm howitzer shells, 122mm tactical rockets and 120mm and 82mm mortar bombs.
