Kim Jong-un will visit Russia

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will pay an official visit to Russia in the coming days, reported Kremlin.

“At the invitation of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, Chairman of State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea Kim Jong-un will pay an official visit to the Russian Federation in the coming days,” the statement said.

Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that he still has nothing to say about Kim Jong-un’s visit to Russia.

September 4 New York wrote about a possible visit of the North Korean leader to Russia and negotiations between Kim Jong-un and Putin within WEF. Peskov then refused to comment on this information.

September 7 Peskov emphasizedthat Moscow and Pyongyang will continue to develop their relations “without regard to the opinions of other countries.”

September 11 South Korean TV channel YTN reportedthat a meeting between President Putin and Kim Jong-un could take place on September 13.

In April 2019, Kim Jong-un met with Vladimir Putin in Vladivostok. It was the first meeting between the leaders of the two countries and the first trip of Kim Jong-un to Russia since he came to power in 2011.
