North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un missed another national holiday, fueling rumors and reports of his health. But U.S. intelligence still sees no sign of him losing power.
South Korea has also remained publicly skeptical, with unnamed officials telling Yonhap News Agency nothing appeared awry north of the world's most heavily-fortified border and the Blue House reporting no unusual trends regarding North Korea or Kim Jong Un's condition. Chinese and Russian officials questioned the media reports, as did President Donald Trump, the first sitting U.S. leader to meet a North Korean ruler.
"We have a good relationship with North Korea, as good as you can have," Trump told reporters at a press briefing Thursday."I mean we have a good relationship with North Korea. I have a good relationship with Kim Jong Un and I hope he's okay" Students wearing face masks attend a lecture on preventative measures against the COVID-19 novel coronavirus disease at the Pyongyang University of Medicine in Pyongyang on April 22. In the absence of supreme leader Kim Jong Un, everyday North Korean life appeared to go on as usual, with the exception of strict public health measures designed to prevent the spread of coronavirus pandemic that authorities claim has not yet reached the country.
