Tension at Putin-Kim Jong-Un meeting! Russian ministers removed from the room...

While Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to North Korea yesterday—his first in 24 years—to sign a military partnership agreement with Kim Jong-un sparked comments about an "alliance against the West," footage from Pyongyang revealed tense moments during the visit.

RUSSIAN MINISTERS REMOVED FROM THE ROOM

North Korean state television broadcast footage of the delegation, including Defense Minister Andrey Belousov, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and numerous high-ranking Russian officials, entering the room. After the delegation took their seats, North Korean officials entered the room, said "Stop," and asked the Russians to leave.

In North Korea, known for its strict protocol rules, officials stated that their leader, Kim Jong-un, would enter the room first and would then invite the Russian officials. To the North Korean official who said, "Respected guests, please go to the lobby," a member of the Russian delegation reacted by saying, "Why? We have already entered the room. You should have told us this earlier."
