North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un departs the Russian city of Vladivostok, a day after a summit with Russia’s president Vladimir Putin.
North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un departed the Russian city of Vladivostok on Friday, a day after a summit with Russia’s president Vladimir Putin.
The focal point of Kim’s three-day visit was his summit with Putin, the first time the two leaders had met. Putin hosted Kim on a university campus on Russky Island located just off the coast of Vladivostok, a port in Russia’s far east, about 4,000 miles from Moscow. With U.S.-North Korean talks stalled following Kim’s unsuccessful summit in Hanoi with Trump in February, North Korea is seeking to bolster its international position and to show it has allies. Kim is also seeking ways to lift pressure from international sanctions and is hoping for economic help, but Russia is unwilling to offer much of either.
But at the same time, Russia has presented itself as supportive of North Korea and has criticized the U.S. for being overly aggressive and inflexible, believing Washington’s goal of total and rapid denuclearization is not realistic.
