North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is set to tour a Russian factory that makes military aircraft, the Associated Press reported, as the US warned he is on a visit that could support Moscow’s assault on Ukraine.
Kim arrived in the eastern city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur on Friday ahead of an expected tour of a facility that makes fighter jets and other aircraft, AP said. Traffic was blocked at the station where Kim’s train stopped, and a convoy of vehicles thought to be carrying the North Korean leader could later be seen pulling away.
Putin said North Korea was interested in Russian space rockets, and his country would potentially be willing to help it build satellites, according to RIA Novosti, a Russian state-owned newswire. Prior to the trip, the New York Times reported Kim may be looking for help in building a nuclear-powered submarine. Before leaving for Moscow, he attended the launch ceremony for what North Korea billed as its first “tactical nuclear attack” submarine that experts believe has a diesel-electric power system.
