Vladimir Putinโs trip to meet the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un saw them sign a new security agreement.
This new security agreement means that Moscow or North Korea will come to each others aid militarily if one is attacked.
On Thursday Northโs official Korean Central News Agency said that the security agreement reached by Putin and Jong Un means that if one of the countries is attacked then a state of war is instantly declared.
