N. Korea, Russia agree to offer military assistance 'without delay' if either is attacked: KCNA

SEOUL, June 20 (Yonhap) -- North Korea and Russia have agreed to offer military assistance "without delay" if either is attacked under a new partnership treaty signed after this week's summit, Pyongyang's state media reported Thursday.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) disclosed the full text of the treaty on the comprehensive strategic partnership that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed Wednesday after their talks in Pyongyang.

"If one of the two sides is placed under war situations due to an armed invasion from an individual country or several nations, the other side provides military and other assistance without delay by mobilizing all means in its possession," the treaty read.
