Kim Jong Un visits China

[Drumboy44]

It is reported that North Korea's top leader Kim Jong-un arrived in Beijing by train this afternoon (March 26). However, Chinese officials have not yet confirmed this. Another public opinion questioned this may be false news. The Chinese network began to circulate news about Kim Jong Un's visit to China this afternoon. According to reports, the Beijing Railway Station was blocked for a short time. The "Beijing Railway" microblogging account also issued news that at 5 pm today, trains to and from the northeastern and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regions are delayed. Among them, trains from Jilin to Beijing Railway Station, and trains from Beijing to Shenyang are delayed by about half an hour; trains from Shenyang to Tianjin Station are also delayed by more than one hour. In addition, there are videos taken by Beijing residents showing that dozens of armed police motorcycles escorted a car away from Beijing. It is speculated by the outside world that the “mysterious visitor” escorted by the authorities is Kim Jong-un. According to a Japanese report published today by the Daily NK, an online media based in Seoul, South Korea, the Sino-DPRK border in China's Dandong discovered that the Sino-Korean railway was blocked a week ago and that no trains from North Korea to China could be seen outside. The police in Dandong also set a snake-shaped roadblock at the train station yesterday afternoon and began to block the railway station and the Yalu River Bridge. The report said that when North Korean leader Kim Jong Il visited China in 2011, he entered through the Dandong Railway Station. However, North Korean sources told the Lianhe Zaobao that "it can't be confirmed" whether Kim Jong-un has arrived in Beijing.

The South Korean government has been striving Tuesday to verify news reports that a high-ranking North Korean official, possibly leader Kim Jong-un, is visiting China.
Our government is trying to thoroughly grasp the related situation, including whether the reports are true," a foreign ministry official said. "(But) whether Workers' Party of Korea Chairman Kim Jong-un is visiting China has not been verified."
Another ministry official also said details of the train's arrival were not known. "The Chinese side does not appear to have provided related details."

China's foreign ministry also declined to confirm the trip.

Asked by Yonhap News to confirm whether Kim or other high-ranking North Korean officials, such as the leader's sister Yo-jong or nominal state head Kim Yong-nam, who represents the assembly, are visiting the country, the Chinese ministry said, "There is nothing we are aware of."

Foreign Ministry spokesman Noh Kyu-duk in Seoul also declined to verify the move, saying only that, "Seen from the past record, the Chinese government has a precedent of officially announcing human exchanges like this at a (later) time when it is deemed appropriate."

Reuters later reported in a dispatch from Beijing that the train left the Chinese capital in the afternoon, citing a witness.

Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Tuesday met with the Foreign Minister of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Ri Yong Ho in Beijing.

Wang said Kim Jong Un, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea and chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK, paid a successful visit to China.

He said during the visit, top leaders of the two countries reached important consensus on the development of China-DPRK relations and the promotion of a peaceful solution to the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue.

Under the current situation, maintaining and developing the traditional friendship between China and the DPRK is very important for both countries and the region, said Wang.
