Aug 4, 2024, 01:55 AM
Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed condolences and offered humanitarian aid to North Korea following devastating floods in the country's northwestern provinces, according to a Kremlin statement. The floods, caused by heavy rainfalls, have resulted in significant casualties and damaged thousands of homes. Putin assured North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that Pyongyang can always count on the support of the Russian Federation. Despite the offer, Kim Jong Un thanked Putin but stated that aid was not necessary. This gesture comes after North Korea rebuffed an offer of assistance from Seoul.
