    China and Iran should join Russia and North Korea to form a NATO like alliance. That would be awesome
  • The USA is in an alliance with SKorea and have military bases there. So, what's wrong with Russia/NK defence pact?
  • The lady from Washington 🙂doing some western propaganda
  • Can somebody tell me who the International Community is? It seems that whenever the West/NATO opposes something they are noted as the International Community which is wrong!
  • @amossimon3438
    The Korean conflict was never settled. They only have agreement to pause aggression. This could turn into full scale war at any time.
  • @playerish
    US policy is to unite CHN Rus NK IR altogether with Brics states.
  • Why are you bringing up Russia, NK and China's relationships were back in the 1960s? Those were different eras and different leaders. Heck it wasn't even Russia, it was the Soviet Union anyway. 🙄🙄
  • @MgWynn
    What international did she refer to.? Did she mean that the West led by US? International community support Russia and N Korea alliance. Only the West and US apposed. Period...
  • @gerrymimi9387
    This is happening to let the US see that it needs to respect other people's interests if it is to see its own respected and served. Since the early 90s, Russia tried to convince the US of this, but the US kept working to undermine Russia's interests at every turn.
  • Bravo Russia, Nth Korea, China, Iran. Countries that stand for world freedom and peace.
  • International community?? 90% of the international community doesn’t agrees with the west at all on anything. Take a look at the summits
