North Korean leader had summit with Putin in rare overseas trip, as west fears weapon transfer deals between countries
The North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, was on his way home from Russia on Sunday, ending a six-day trip that triggered global concerns about weapons transfer deals between the two countries locked in separate standoffs with the west.
Kim began his journey back to North Korea onboard his armoured train from the Primorye region in Russia’s far east, after a farewell ceremony at a train station, Russia’s state news agency RIA said.
