Snip:

The first direct flight between Moscow and Pyongyang in Russia’s post-Soviet history successfully landed in North Korea on Monday morning.

Previously, the only direct air route between Russia and North Korea connected Pyongyang with Vladivostok, a major city in Russia’s Far East, and was operated by North Korean state carrier Air Koryo. The reintroduction of regular service between the capitals – interrupted for more than 75 years – signals strengthening relations, officials said.

[...]

This flight “marks a milestone in the modern relationship between our nations,” said Russian Natural Resources and Environment Minister Aleksandr Kozlov, who co-chairs a bilateral intergovernmental commission on cooperation with North Korea.

Kozlov was greeted at Pyongyang International Airport by North Korean Foreign Economic Affairs Minister Yun Jong-ho, his counterpart on the commission. Yun called the new air service a step toward “the prosperity of the peoples of our two nations.”
