Details of the agreement are not specified in the release. They only report that the document “clearly and openly sets out the goals and principles” of interaction between Belarus and the DPRK and announces future mutually beneficial processes between the countries.
Lukashenko recalled that relations between Minsk and Pyongyang “originated during the Soviet Union” and “were never interrupted,” and are now moving to a “fundamentally new stage.” At the same time, he said, other countries would be “not happy” with their relationship. He did not say which ones exactly.
Kim Jong-un said that the DPRK and Belarus “strive to build a multipolar world based on the principles of independence and justice.” He expressed “solidarity and full support for Belarus, which is striving to pursue an independent policy consistent with its reality, achieve peace and development, while at the same time continuing to develop relations with traditionally friendly countries,” and spoke out against “unlawful pressure on Belarus from the West,” according to the website of the illegitimate Belarusian.
