Upon landing, he wrote on the Russian messenger Max: “Friends are together. Enemies are getting nervous.”
During his stay, Medvedev laid a wreath at the Liberation Monument in Pyongyang in honor of Soviet soldiers who died fighting Japanese forces in 1945 and placed flowers at the statues of the late North Korean leaders Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il.
The ex-president also held talks with Cho Yong-won, secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party, where both sides affirmed growing cooperation in politics, the economy, culture and military affairs.
