Kim Jong Un travels to China by armored train for a military parade

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has left for China on an impressive armored train, equipped with conference rooms and a dining car. He will participate in the military parade for 'Victory Day' in Beijing, alongside Chinese President Xi Jinping and other allied leaders, marking his first appearance at an international meeting since 1959. The journey, which lasts approximately 24 hours, is being conducted at reduced speed for security reasons. This is the first time Kim is attending such a ceremony, changing the approach from 2015, when Pyongyang sent only an official.
