Northkoreas foregin policy,
Most important Nortg korea follows its 주체(Juche) ideologi, wich in short means self-reliance (Independent for itsself) based on historical inavsions by other nations, China,Japan,USA. Causing a genral hostlitiy against US allies.
-Good relations can be saied are
1.China wich is the life source and only one who can curb North korea, but China is in need of North korea as China dosnt want the USA via South korea at its border and so China dose everything to maintain the status of NK. China cant comdem NK
2014 China condemed NK for a nuclear test wich was btw recorded as a 5.3 earthquake. But at that time Kim Jong-un had to show strength to get full controll of the army and curb rivals. NK gets everything needed via China also its the cause of always possible collaps with news.
Russia.
Russia also wants to avoid more US troops at the border and esspecialy in its weaker east but Russia sees in NK a good buyer for missles and gives so sometimes its save veto in the UNSC. All sanctions were due to nuclear tests Russia couldnt prevent without losing face.
Russia and North korea etablished a special industrial cone ar its 18km long border in Rizon for a cooperative production as Russia sales the good and gives money to the Northkorean regime. Kim also visited Putin already in Wladiwostok. Russia buys many minerals from NK.
