North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Thursday expressed hope that his first-ever meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin would help address tensions on the Korean Peninsula.
“I would also like to say that the situation on the Korean Peninsula is now gaining a lot of attention from the entire international community. I hope that our talks will become an important event for assessing this situation together, exchanging our views on this situation and settling this issue together,” Sputnik quoted Kim saying through an interpreter at his talks with Putin.
“I hope that we will have a substantive exchange of views,” Kim added.
