The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The Kremlin has joined forces with Pyongyang in a desperate move to continue its war of aggression against Ukraine, establishing a partnership that is unlikely to last long, but that could shake up Northeast Asia and the world. It's pressing that the West ramps up its deterrence strategy against Russia and engages diplomatically with Beijing, which is also interested in stability in the Korean Peninsula despite the actions of its junior allies.

Project Syndicate

Establishment-critical narrative

It's no wonder that enemies of North Korea and Russia are complaining that the countries have established a comprehensive strategic partnership, as the regional balance of power has been fundamentally changed. Moscow and Pyongyang are now bound to provide each other immediate military assistance in case of a defensive war, so potential aggressors would naturally object to such a union.
