SEOUL, South Korea — Major weapons exporter South Korea will 'reconsider' a longstanding policy that bars it from supplying arms directly to Ukraine, a presidential official said Thursday, after North Korea signed a mutual defense agreement with Russia.

'(We are) planning to reconsider the issue of providing weapons support to Ukraine,' a presidential official told reporters hours after Russia's President Vladimir Putin left Pyongyang.
