MOSCOW (Sputnik) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has returned to Pyongyang after his state visit to Russia, state media reported Wednesday.
Kim arrived in North Korea's capital Pyongyang by a special train on Tuesday evening, the report said.
On Wednesday, North Korea's KCNA state-run news agency reported that Kim had passed the Russian border railway station of Khasan and crossed the Tumen River - a part of the boundary between China, Russia and North Korea.
This past Sunday, a delegation of Russian high-ranking officials saw Kim off after the delegation wrapped up their five-day visit to Russia and boarded an armored train at the Artem-Primorsky-1 station in Russia's Primorsky Territory.
