I'll Be Back: Kim Jong-Un's First Visit to Russia

Subscribe
In April 2019, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un arrived in Russia's eastern city of Vladivostok for a meeting with President Vladimir Putin. It was the first-ever meeting between them, and Kim's first official visit to the Russian Federation.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un traveled to Vladivostok in his trademark armored train. On his way to the port city, Kim made a brief stop at the Khasan border station to visit the House of Russian-Korean Friendship, built in 1986 on the eve of Kim Il Sung's visit.
He met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on April 25 at his residence on the territory of the Far Eastern Federal University on Russky Island.
Take a look at Kim Jong-un's visit to Russia back in 2019 in Sputnik's gallery:
