"The Russian president, Vladimir Putin, and the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, have signed a pact that includes a clause requiring the countries to come to each other’s aid if either is attacked.
The inclusion of a mutual defence clause in their comprehensive strategic partnership, which Kim described as an “alliance”, will add to the west’s alarm over growing economic and military ties between North Korea and Russia. The deal was finalised on Wednesday after hours of talks in the North Korean capital, Pyongyang."

This means two things:
1. North Korea could come and directly help Russia in war in Ukraine, which would mean that Ukraine would be now also up against millions of North Korean soldiers, millions more artillery pieces, thousands more tanks and missiles.
2. Russia could guarantee protection of North Korea, so North Korea is free to invade South Korea and USA wont be able to come to help South Korea without starting a global nuclear war with Russia.
This deal is a complete victory for North Korea, since it formed a military alliance with one of the most powerful nuclear forces on Earth.
