Russia soon to begin to build road bridge to North Korea

Russia and North Korea will start building a road bridge over the Tumen River, according to Alexander Matsegora, Russia's ambassador to North Korea.
The bridge, measuring 850 meters, will connect to the Russian highway system and is near the existing Friendship Bridge, which was commissioned in 1959.
Preparatory work is underway, with design documentation and construction crews being finalized, according to Alexander Matsegora.
The bridge's construction may lead to increased exchanges between North Korea and Russia, potentially affecting international sanctions.
