Bilateral relations between the DPRK and Ukraine were suspended in July 2022 due to North Korea's recognition of the separatist Donetsk People's Republic and Luhansk People's Republic in eastern Ukraine. The two countries had burgeoning trade as well as technical relations prior to the direct involvement of the DPRK in the Russo-Ukrainian war against Ukraine.
