The DPRK spent a lot of time building military might as deterrent and inherited many of the USSR's military intellectual development.

The all out sanctions war on Russia was a monumental fuck up on the part of Biden admin. The fear of secondary sanctions was what kept Russia from working with Cuba, Iran, and DPRK this whole time. Now that threat is used up, and Russia no longer has any reason to conform to US sanctions on other countries.
True, and now we seen Russia openly increasing contacts with DPRK, Cuba, Iran, China, basically all the bad guys on US hit list.
Who would have think that US sanctions really can bring freedom 😆

I expect that the main idea will be that Russia will provide resources in exchange for DPRK doing manufacturing. This was largely the relationship back in USSR days as well incidentally. Russian economy is overheating right now, so outsourcing manufacturing makes a lot of sense.
