YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un hosted a banquet and a artistic performance for visiting China's President Xi Jinping Monday evening in the capital, Pyongyang. #northkorea #china #asia #worldnews #news #politics #trump

Kim Jong Un called ties with China a “top priority” during Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to Pyongyang, signaling a recalibration back toward China after years of drawing closer to Moscow.

The two leaders vowed to expand cooperation in trade, tourism, and technology alongside deeper diplomatic and military ties, in a clear sign the communist neighbors are broadening bilateral ties.

China's top leader skipped any public mention of denuclearization during the visit, fueling speculation that China has tacitly accepted North Korea as a de facto nuclear power, with experts saying China is “quietly moving away from” talks of denuclearization.
