Russian President Vladimir Putin said that he can’t exclude providing North Korean leader Kim Jong Un with high-precision weapons in response to Western military assistance for Ukraine.

“We reserve the right to supply arms in other regions of the world,” Putin said late Thursday at a press conference in Hanoi. “Bearing in mind our agreements with the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, I don’t rule this out.”
