WorldNorth Korea completes two road bridges to strategic partners China and Russia

Two new road bridges are expected to improve North Korea’s trade and transport links with China and Russia. The New Yalu River Bridge between Sinuiju and Dandong could open formally in early October, while a bridge linking Rason with Russia’s Khasan opened on September 7. Analysts say Pyongyang is using ties with both powers to expand its leverage while avoiding excessive dependence on Beijing.
