The Russian Foreign Minister expressed admiration, saying that North Korea understands much more than Iran!
The "12-day war" between Israel and Iran has already passed some time, and regarding the outcome of this battle, I suppose everyone has their own judgment.
Against this background, Russia brought up the issue again, and compared Iran with North Korea.
The reason was during his visit to North Korea, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov was asked two questions:
"What conclusion do you think North Korea can draw from the U.S. attack on Iran? Will the U.S. attack strengthen North Korea's determination to reinforce its national defense, including its nuclear forces?"
Lavrov's answer was that before the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, North Korea had made a "correct decision," so no one considered using military force against North Korea.
Evidently, the "correct decision" he mentioned refers to North Korea's firm defense construction and its determination to fight against the United States.
It should be said that the different choices of Iran and North Korea indeed led the two countries down different paths.
One continues to dream of reconciling with the United States, but paid a heavy price for it. The other relies on its own capabilities to make the United States wary.
