North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has arrived in Russia, Japanese media reported on on September 12, for what the Kremlin said would be a comprehensive discussion with Russian President Vladimir Putin amid warnings from Washington they should not agree on an arms deal.<\/p>\n

Both Moscow and Pyongyang have denied earlier U.S. accusations that they would be conducting arms deals, but the two countries have vowed to boost defence ties.<\/p>\n

Kim left Pyongyang for Russia on September 10 on his private train, the North’s state media reported, accompanied by top arms industry and military officials and the foreign minister.<\/p>\n

Japan’s Kyodo news agency reported on Tuesday, citing an unnamed Russian official source, that a train carrying Kim had arrived at Khasan station, the main rail gateway to Russia’s Far East from North Korea.<\/p>\n

Putin was expected to arrive in Vladivostok on Tuesday, where he was scheduled to attend the main session of the Eastern Economic Forum, which runs through September 13.<\/p>\n

His meetings with Kim were expected to be on the sidelines of the forum, although there has been no confirmation of the location or whether Kim would attend the event.<\/p>\n
