that they hope to spook kim jong un by making this meeting so public and putting the eyes of the world on him and on this travel, that he will decide it is just too dangerous to go, and by thwarting the meeting they probably hope they can thwart the arms deal. the us priority in this right now seems to be to stop these weapons getting to the front line of ukraine. but here in south korea the concerns run much deeper. it is, what does this mean for the future of russian and korean cooperation? russia is desperate and it is expected that kim jong un would put a high price on any weapons he would sell the russian leader. the things he will broadly worry about are, could this increase military cooperation in this region between north korea and russia? could we see military drills between the two sides? another fear is that kim jong un might ask for russian weapons at some point far in the future when north korea needs them most. so by far the biggest worry is if he could de ....
