The message said:

I extend my heartfelt congratulations and warm comradely greetings to you on the happy news that you have been reelected as president of the Russian Federation.

Through the recent presidential election the Russian people further strengthened the socio-political unity with you as the centre and fully demonstrated at home and abroad their will to build a powerful Russia with confidence by displaying patriotism.

Your reelection to the heavy responsibility of the head of state is the Russian people’s valuable estimate of the outstanding leadership and tenacious executive ability you displayed in state activities with a high prestige as the leader of the nation, and an expression of their unshakable support and trust in you.

I am firmly convinced that, under your energetic and correct guidance, the Russian people will surely win victory in the cause of reliably defending the sovereignty and security of the country, accelerating the socio-economic development, realizing international peace and justice and building an independent multipolar world.

Thanks to the meeting between us at the Vostochny Spaceport in September 2023, the good-neighborly relations between the DPRK and the Russian Federation have greeted a historic turning point and are developing into the everlasting strategic cooperative relations with anti-imperialist independence as a common idea.

I will firmly join hands with you and bring about a new era of the DPRK-Russia friendship with long historical roots and traditions in conformity with the requirements of the times and push forward with the accomplishment of the cause of building a powerful country, the aspiration and desire of the peoples of the two countries.

I wish you good health and greater success in your responsible work for the Russian people.
