Description
North Korea’s Kim Jong Un rolled into Russia on an armored train to see President Vladimir Putin.
It's a rare meeting between isolated leaders driven together by their need for support in escalating standoffs with the West.
Kim is expected to seek economic aid and military technology for his impoverished country. Kim’s train stopped in Khasan, a station on the Russia-North Korea border, where it was met by a military honor guard and a brass band, according to video on social media channels by a regional governor and Russia's natural resources minister.
Kim appears to have something Putin desperately needs: munitions for Russia's grueling war in Ukraine.
