Russia and North Korea open first shared vehicle bridge
Russia and North Korea jointly inaugurated their first land border crossing over the Tumen River, marking an important step in strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries. The bridge, located near the Friendship Bridge built in 1959, aims to promote economic development and cooperation in tourism and trade. It is expected to help create jobs and boost transportation infrastructure between Moscow and Pyongyang. Construction of the bridge began in April 2025 following an agreement made during Putin's visit to North Korea in 2024, as part of efforts to deepen relations since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine.
