Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin is not planning to visit North Korea after meeting the country's leader Kim Jong-un at the Vostochny Cosmodrome in Russia's Far East earlier in the day.

Peskov stated that no return visit is being planned at the moment, but noted the foreign ministers of the two countries are set to meet in North Korea next month. He also stressed that the Russian president told KIm that, if Pyongyang wants, Moscow could help it send a cosmonaut to space.

After the meeting with Kim, Putin stated there is space for Moscow and Pyongyang to cooperate in the military field but acknowledged "certain restrictions" due to international obligations.
