A top Russian security official travelled to North Korea on Friday and met leader Kim Jong Un, according to the countries' state media, after North Korea recently reportedly sent additional troops to Russia to support its war against Ukraine.

Russia's state-run news agency Tass reported that Sergei Shoigu, Russia's Security Council secretary, during a meeting with Kim conveyed a message from Russian President Vladimir Putin, who extended his greetings and vowed to give “utmost attention” to implementing agreements reached in their recent summits.

Interfax, another Russian news agency, reported that during the meeting, Shoigu reaffirmed Moscow's “unconditional readiness” to uphold a security partnership deal reached at last year's Pyongyang summit, which pledges mutual assistance if either country faces aggression.
