Cold War 2.0: Putin-Kim’s ‘elevated friendship’ threatens American order in East Asia

Firstpost  

Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s ‘elevated friendship’ has come to pose a big security question that may jeopardise the existing security architecture maintained by the US and its allies The state visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin to North Korea has sparked major debates defining the evolving dynamics in northeast Asia. Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s ‘elevated friendship’ has come to pose a big security question that may jeopardise the existing security architecture maintained by the US and its allies. The ‘Strategic Partnership’ breakthrough achieved during Putin’s visit addresses the need to provide immediate military assistance to North Korea in an ‘event of attack by adversary state’. The pact between Russia and North Korea can be understood as the latter’s attempt to play a larger regional role in ousting the US security architecture and continuing its prominence in the region.
