verb 'grant' used 'with'?
Could someone explain to me if the word 'grant' can be used with 'with' and what it means?
(I checked with many dictionaries, but couldn't find an example used in that way.)
example sentence in an editorial today:
Russia’s yatra is an opportunity for Kim to grant his country with a multi-dimensional defence and diplomatic perspective and open up to all those who wish to see a more interdependent and proactive communist state across the Armistice line.

You can grant somebody something but you can not grant somebody with something, so the sentence above seems to be incorrect.

Although it is stretching it a bit:
Grant (verb): My Fairy Godmother granted me three wishes! She followed up her grant with a further promise of three more wishes next year.
