Vladimir Maksimov, President of the Children of Asia International Committee, had a working meeting with the Head of the Delegation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Jang Song Nam. 

Mr Vladimir Maximov welcomed the honoured guest, pointing out the great significance of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea team's participation in the 8th Children of Asia International Sports Games.

"It is a great honour for us that the DPRK team took part in the Children of Asia Games and showed the highest level of preparation, talent of its young athletes. Despite the fact that the team included only 15 athletes - they won seven gold medals and one silver medal. For such an amount of athletes - it is the best result. They showed an amazing determination to achieve their goals.

Jang Song Nam expressed his gratitude for the invitation to the 8th Children of Asia International Sports Games and said that it was a great honour for them to participate in such a major sports event. 

"We are very excited to be a part of such large-scale Games. Such events help us to develop cooperation between Russia and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. With such projects as Children of Asia, the relations between our countries will become even stronger. In the future, we intend to continue participating and representing our athletes at these competitions, no matter where they are held," said the Head of Delegation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
