    No wonder there as a video on RT (odysee) with pro-Palestinian protestors holding up giant posters of Putin and Kim. Putin I can understand, but the DPRK doesn’t exactly have much geopolitical influence. Makes sense now. The Resistance from all corners should unite against Imperialism.

      You need to listen to this song to understand the Palestinian view of the geopolitics today (someone posted it in the megathread yesterday). Every key players are mentioned there: Russia, Ukraine, US, Israel, China, DPRK, Iran, Syria etc.

        The chorus of that song is not good with the reference to banishing Ukrainians and marrying Ukrainian women but the rest of it is a pretty good geopolitical song from the perspective of Palestine.

      This past week, some Russian officials met with Kim Jong Un for negotiations. The Russian official were Sergei Lavrov, Andrei Rudenko, and Alexandr Matsegora.

      “(Kim Jong Un) expressed the steadfast stand of the WPK and the DPRK government to work out a stable, forward-looking, far-reaching plan for the DPRK-Russia relations in the new era by faithfully implementing the agreements made at the DPRK-Russia summit, and to promote the well-being of the peoples of the two countries and push forward with the cause of building a powerful state by dint of the said plan.”
