China Restarts Freight Service with North Korea

It looks like China is trying to get business back to usual with North Korea despite their continuing COVID protocols:

Cargo train operation between North Korea and China is likely to continue, a South Korean government official said Tuesday, citing Beijing’s confirmation of its resumption following a five-month suspension.

On Monday, a freight train from the Chinese border city of Dandong was seen crossing a railway bridge over the Amnok River toward North Korea for the first time since late April.

Speaking at a press briefing later in the day, the Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson, Wang Wenbin, confirmed the resumption of the train service linking Dandong and the North’s border city of Sinuiju.

Kim III, like Kim I and Kim II, has a great racket going with railway wagons.

China sends in products on new wagons from Dandong to Sinuiju.

Kim III purloins the new Chinese wagons and ships back old and decrepit Korean wagons from Sinuiju to Dandong.
