North Korean leader Kim Jong Un met on Monday with Russian Natural Resources Minister Alexander Kozlov, state media KCNA reported, in the latest sign of growing ties between Pyongyang and Moscow.

During the meeting, Kim said cooperation in trade, science and technology must be expanded for the development and prosperity of the two countries, according to a report released on Tuesday.

“It is necessary to mutually and vigorously promote the common prosperity and development of the two countries by further promoting intergovernmental trade, economic, scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation in a broader and diversified manner,” Kim was quoted as saying in the report.

According to state media, a delegation from the Military Academy of the General Staff of the Russian Army arrived in Pyongyang on Monday, and a delegation from the Pyongyang City Council Committee also left for Russia.

The exchange between Pyongyang and Moscow came as South Korean President Yoon Seok-yeol called on the two countries at the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro end its military cooperation, which it called illegal.

A separate column published by KCNA on Tuesday criticized trilateral cooperation between South Korea, the United States and Japan, including a summit took place last week on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Lima, Peru.

He stated that such cooperation, including military exercises, caused discord and confrontation. (Reuters).
