Russia and North Korea are set to begin construction of a road bridge over the Tumen River, strengthening their connection with plans for increased economic and military exchanges. The bridge, part of a 2024 agreement, will link North Korea to the Russian highway system.
Russia and North Korea are set to begin construction of a road bridge over the Tumen River, connecting the two countries, according to Russia's ambassador to Pyongyang, Alexander Matsegora. The bridge, which was agreed upon during President Vladimir Putin's 2024 visit to North Korea, will be built near the existing "Friendship Bridge" rail bridge, which has stood since 1959.
Matsegora confirmed that while construction has not yet started, both sides are preparing by finalizing design documents and organizing construction crews. The road bridge, which will span 850 meters, has been discussed for years and will connect to the Russian highway system.
Satellite images analyzed by South Korean firm SI Analytics suggest that preparatory work on the bridge's foundations and road links has already begun. The new bridge is expected to significantly increase economic, social, and military exchanges between the two countries. This could also raise concerns about the potential erosion of international sanctions imposed on both North Korea and Russia.
