North Korea Journey: China vs Russia
Chinese leader Xi Jinping will meet North Korea next week during a two-day visit, his first in nearly seven years, aimed at strengthening relations between Beijing and Pyongyang. The visit comes amidst China's efforts to bring North Korea back into its sphere of influence, especially after its rapprochement with Russia and the strengthening of its ties with Moscow. Meanwhile, Kim Jong Un seeks to leverage the closeness with Beijing and Moscow to achieve stronger positions, possibly using these relationships to pressure for economic concessions and to advance his nuclear program. Through this visit, China aims to unify its allies' stances against the West and to confirm that North Korea relies on it, while Kim is attempting to benefit from the rapprochement with Russia to balance its power.
