Kim Jong-un Arrives In Vladivostok for Long Awaited Summit with Putin
|These two have much to discuss on how they plan to avoid international sanctions against North Korea:
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un arrived in Vladivostok on his personal train, Wednesday, for a high-stakes summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Russia gave a red-carpet welcome for Kim at the train station in the Russian Far Eastern city amid tight security.
En route to Vladivostok, Kim’s train stopped at Khasan near the border between the two countries at around 9:40 a.m. (KST).
Russian government officials greeted the North Korean leader with flowers, salt and bread, as part of a local tradition to welcome guests. Local media outlets reported that Kim said he would visit Russia again in the future.
Kim stayed at the station for about an hour before resuming his journey to Vladivostok.

A few days ago, our government came out with a new label for a few Latin American countries; the Troika of Tyranny. They got nothing for this cabal out here in the Western Pacific.
I’ve already pointed out the Putin problem some time ago but he, like Xi in China, are playing the long game and will leverage Kim to advance their interests. So what if they decide to break sanctions and give Kim whatever he needs. Could we sanction Russia any more?
JoeC, Putin is a troll, just like POTUS. Maybe not as good as POTUS; but still a troll. He’s playing with the usual suspects…
