Will Kim Jong-un Next Hold A Summit with Putin?

That is what the Korea Times is speculating about:

Vladimir Putin

With North Korean leader Kim Jong-un making a surprise visit to China, chances are that the dictator will also hold dialogue with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

The possibility has risen after Kim ended his four-day state visit to Beijing on Wednesday. Kim, accompanied by his wife, Ri Sol-ju, met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.

The meeting between the two leaders came at a time when the North Korean leader plans to hold dialogue with President Moon Jae-in and United States President Donald Trump in April and May, respectively.

Kim’s unprecedented active determination for dialogue also raises hopes for a possible meeting with the Russian leader.

The Kremlin dismissed the possibility for a potential summit between Kim and Vladimir Putin. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters Wednesday that no schedule for the summit has been arranged and is not under review at the moment.

But chances are that Pyongyang and Moscow could join hands, as Russia also apparently hopes to play a part in the ongoing North Korea nuclear issues.  [Korea Times]

I guess we will see over the next month if Putin wants to insert himself into the current negotiations going on over the future of the Korean peninsula.

If Trump, Putin, and KJU all had a meeting together a lot of liberals might actually spontaneously combust.
That would be interesting.

Especially if it ended with Kim’s nukes in the hold of a Navy freighter…
