Udhëheqësi i Koresë së Veriut, Kim Jong Un, u takua të enjten me ministrin rus të punëve të Jashtme, i cili qëndroi në Phenian në një vizitë në të cilën Moska shpreson të ritheksojë rolin e saj si një forcë që do të llogaritet përpara takimit të pritur të Kim me presidentin amerikan, Donald Trump në Singapor muajin e ardhshëm.

Moska ka mbetur anash derisa Kim-i shtriu një komunikim të fuqishëm diplomatik me Seulin, Pekinin dhe Washingtonin gjatë disa muajve të kaluar. Por vizita e Sergey Lavrov lë të kuptohet se Rusia dëshiron të sigurohet se është e informuar për synimet e Koresë së Veriut dhe se ajo është e ndërgjegjshme për shqetësimet e Moskës.

Lavrov i përcolli “përshëndetjet dhe urimet më të përzemërta” të presidentit Vladimir Putin për “përpjekjet e mëdha” të Kimit në Gadishullin Korean. Ai gjithashtu shprehu mbështetjen e Moskës për një marrëveshje që Kimi arriti me presidentin e Koresë së Jugut, Mun-Jae-in, në një takim muajin e kaluar, që u përqendrua në masat për të ulur armiqësitë dhe për të rritur shkëmbimet mes dy Koreve.

Në një video nga fillimi i i takimit shihet ministri Lavrov duke e ftuar Kim Jong Unin për një vizitë në Moskë dhe duke e përgëzuar atë për shumë projekte në kryeqytetin e tij.

Sipas medies ruse, ai diskutoi rrugët e thellimit të marrëdhënieve gjatë një takimi me ministrin e Jashtëm, Ri Yong Ho.

“Mirëpresim kontaktet që janë vendosur muajve të fundit ndërmjet Veriut e Jugut dhe ndërmjet Koresë së Veriut dhe Shteteve të Bashkuara”, tha ministri Lavrov. “Mirëpresim takimin që u zhvillua ndërmjet Phenianit dhe Seulit sikurse edhe takimit të planifikuar ndërmjet Koresë së Veriut dhe udhëheqjes së Shteteve të Bashkuara”.

Ai theksoi mbështetjen ruse për çarmatimin bërthamor dhe përpjekjet për të vendosur paqe të qëndrueshme e afatgjate në rajon, por tha se Moska beson që sanksionet mund të lehtësohen derisa zhvillohet procesi, ndryshe nga qëndrimi amerikan se fillimisht duhet të ndodhë çarmatimi bërthamor.

“Është absolutisht e qartë se kur të fillojnë bisedimet për zgjidhjen e problemeve bërthamore dhe problemeve tjera në gadishullin korean, të nisemi nga fakti se vendimi nuk mund të jetë i plotë derisa sanksionet janë ende në fuqi”, tha ai.

    Kim Jong Un complains of U.S. ‘hegemonism’ as summit nears

    © The Associated Press North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov meet in Pyongyang, North Korea, on Thursday. TOKYO — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un complained of “U.S. hegemonism” to Russia’s visiting foreign minister on Thursday, a comment likely to complicate ties with the United States as plans proceed for Kim’s expected summit with President Donald Trump in Singapore next month.

    Kim told Sergey Lavrov that he hopes to boost cooperation with Russia, which has remained largely on the sidelines in recent months as Kim has made a major diplomatic outreach to the United States as well as to South Korea and China.

    “As we move to adjust to the political situation in the face of U.S. hegemonism, I am willing to exchange detailed and in-depth opinions with your leadership and hope to do so moving forward,” Kim told Lavrov.

    Kim has previously made harsher comments and even threatened to launch nuclear attacks on the United States numerous times. But his comments Thursday come at a sensitive moment, when one of his top lieutenants is in New York for talks with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on the planned summit.

    Since January, Kim has significantly toned down his rhetoric against Washington and Seoul and tried to reach out to them following a year of heightened nuclear tensions that saw increased fears of war on the Korean Peninsula.

    Kim has indicated he is willing to relinquish his nuclear arsenal in exchange for security guarantees from the United States. But continuing differences between the two countries led Trump to abruptly cancel the planned summit last week, and then quickly announce that it might still be held as scheduled on June 12.

    Despite having a border with North Korea and relatively cordial relations that Russian President Vladimir Putin has seemed to want to develop further, Russia has kept a surprisingly low profile as Kim has emerged onto the world stage this year, meeting twice with Chinese President Xi Jinping and South Korean President Moon Jae-in.

    Lavrov’s visit to Pyongyang suggests that Russia wants to become involved and make sure North Korea informs it of its intentions and is mindful of Moscow’s concerns.

    In their talks, Lavrov relayed Putin’s “warmest regards and best wishes” for Kim’s “big endeavors” on the Korean Peninsula. He also expressed Moscow’s support for an agreement Kim reached with Moon at a summit last month that focused on measures to ease hostilities and increase exchanges between the two Koreas.

    Video of the beginning of their meeting also showed Lavrov inviting Kim to Moscow.

    According to Russian media, he also discussed ways to expand relations during a meeting with Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho.

    “We welcome the contacts that have been developing in the recent months between North and South Korea, between North Korea and the United States,” Lavrov said in comments to the media. “We welcome the summits that already took place between Pyongyang and Seoul as well as planned meetings between North Korean and U.S. leadership.”

    He vowed Russia’s support for denuclearization and a broader effort to create a stable and long-lasting peace in the region, but indicated that Moscow believes sanctions can be eased while the process is in progress, which diverges from the U.S. position that denuclearization must come first.

    “It’s absolutely obvious that when a conversation starts about solving the nuclear problem and other problems of the Korean Peninsula, we proceed from the fact that the decision can’t be complete while sanctions are still in place,” he said.

    As Lavrov was visiting Pyongyang, former North Korean intelligence chief Kim Yong Chol was in New York to discuss the agenda for the Trump summit with U.S. officials.
