North Korea's Kim Jong Un described his meeting with Russia's Vladimir Putin as a 'very meaningful one-on-one exchange.”
North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has quite the way with world leaders: first appearing to successfully woo President Donald Trump, and having a similar effect on Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

ALEXEY NIKOLSKY/AFP/Getty ImagesKim has also developed an unusual relationship with his counterpart in Washington. Although President Trump and Kim exchanged fiery rhetoric back in 2017, the tone has since warmed into what the U.S. president suggested was a budding a romance.
Some analysts expressed concern about Kim’s decision to meet with Putin, especially since little progress has been achieved between Washington and Pyongyang. Republican Representative Lee Zeldin of New York said the love triangle only made sense considering the international implications of denuclearization. “This is something that is beyond a bilateral issue,” the congressman told America’s Newsroom. “Russia is also a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council.”
