The agreement, which includes the establishment of a strategic partnership between Russia and North Korea, has been published in the country's legal information system. The agreement foresees the development of relations between the two countries in many areas such as defense, agriculture, health, and education, and it also includes a clause stating that if one party is attacked, the other party will provide military assistance.
