In New York, U.N. spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that while the global organization was not immediately able to analyze what was being shown, “all members of Security Council and, frankly, all member states of the U.N. share the same responsibility to uphold Security Council resolutions.” The KCNA state news agency did not refer to the war in Ukraine but quoted Defence Minister Kang Sun Nam as saying that Pyongyang fully supported Russia’s “battle for justice” and protection of its sovereignty.Shoigu gave Kim a letter from Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledging that backing.
