Kim Jong Un Returns Home after Surprise Beijing Visit
The Straits Times

10 January 2019

Analysts believe that apart from discussing the issue of denuclearisation during his visit to China, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un might have asked Chinese President Xi Jinping for help with his country’s economy and strategised pushing for a peace treaty to replace the Korean War armistice signed between North Korea, China and the United States. “The Americans will watch this visit very closely, bearing in mind who Mr Kim brought along,” said Mr Shawn Ho, associate research fellow at RSIS.
