Russian President Vladimir Putin has gifted North Korean leader Kim Jong Un a Russian-made car. This was confirmed by Pyongyang’s state media on February 20, as the two countries bolster ties in areas from tourism to defence. Kim’s powerful sister Kim Yo Jong said that gift serves “as a clear demonstration of the special personal relations between the top leaders”, KCNA reported. Meanwhile, South Korea’s unification ministry said it deemed Putin’s gift to Kim a UN sanctions violation. putingiftskimcar
