The Ministry of Defence of the United Kingdom reports that North Korean munitions have already been delivered to military depots in western Russia, despite the denial of this information.
"If North Korea sustains the recent scale and pace of military-related shipments (more than 1,000 containers over the last several weeks), it will be on course to become one of Russia’s most significant foreign arms suppliers, alongside Iran and Belarus," noted in intelligence.
According to British intelligence, it is still unclear what exactly Russia has agreed to provide to North Korea, and it is unlikely that the full package has been finalized. It was likely one of the main topics of discussion during recent high-level visits of Russian officials to North Korea.
The package is likely to include financial compensation, other forms of economic support, the provision of military technology, and collaboration in other high-tech industries, such as space.
