    Really happy this is happening, I also saw on Portuguese news that’s there’s also something going on with Vietnam? Either the DPRK is increasing diplomacy or Russia, all in all this is a nice improvement. I know Putin is not a communist (I don’t know if I’d even call him sympathetic, I don’t know much about him) but it’s interesting to see him willing to build these relationships, if that makes sense.

      Putin visiting Viet Nam probably indicates the country joining BRICS+

      Indeed, we’re seeing a new world being forged in front of our eyes where the west is no longer the central pillar.

      Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam have shown interest to join BRICS so maybe it’s related to that.

    Exciting things happening. Russia has no reason anymore to uphold UN sanctions that it earlier voted for against the DPRK now that it itself is isolated and subjected to blockade by the west.

      Exactly, the reason Russia shunned Cuba, Iran, and DPRK was out of fear of secondary sanctions hurting their economy. Now that the west played that card, they lost any leverage they had.
