KCNA

    Pyongyang, September 21 (KCNA) -- Russia will continue to develop the bilateral relations with the DPRK and invariably implement in the future, too, its commitments made in the Moscow declaration, a result of the meeting of President Putin and Chairman of the National Defence Commission Kim Jong Il irrespective of the outcome of the six-way talks. Konstantin Borisovich Pulikovski, presidential envoy to the Far Eastern Region of the Russian Federation who visited the DPRK on the occasion of its 55th anniversary, said this when interviewed by the Voice of Russia on Sept. 16. Recalling that he was received by leader Kim Jong Il, he noted that the talk with him proceeded in an atmosphere of friendship and mutual trust.
    Saying that he was deeply impressed to participate in celebrations of the 55th anniversary of the DPRK, he referred to the Beijing six-way talks and the friendly and cooperative relations between the two countries.
    He continued:
    The bilateral relations between Russia and the DPRK will steadily develop.
    I would like to stress the point that both sides will further strengthen the political and economic relations and pursue talks and negotiations. This will promote the normalization of the complicated situation on the Korean peninsula.
