Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un greeted each other warmly as the Russian president landed in Pyongyang on Wednesday for two days of talks with the North Korean leader.
Putin arrived for his first visit in 24 years, vowing to deepen trade and security ties with the reclusive nuclear-armed state and to support it against the United States.
Russian state media said Putin’s plane touched down in Pyongyang around 2.45am local time (6.45pm Tuesday BST) after a stopover in Russia’s far east.
The rare visit comes as North Korea becomes a key ally to Russia, sending five million artillery shells to Moscow since last summer and dozens of missiles in return for technical support on launching spy satellites.
