North Korea has officially confirmed the return of its leader, Kim Jong Un, from his recent visit to Russia. The announcement comes following Kim Jong Un's diplomatic engagement in Russia, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The visit was of significant importance as it marked the first time Kim Jong Un had traveled abroad since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. During his talks with President Putin, discussions revolved around strengthening bilateral relations and regional issues.

North Korean state media reported that Kim Jong Un's trip was successful, emphasizing the importance of cooperation between North Korea and Russia. The official statement did not provide specific details about the discussions held during the visit.

Kim Jong Un's visit to Russia was seen as an effort to diversify North Korea's diplomatic ties, particularly at a time when negotiations with the United States over denuclearization have been at a standstill.

The announcement of Kim Jong Un's return reaffirms North Korea's commitment to its diplomatic engagements and international relations. It remains to be seen how these diplomatic efforts will shape the future of North Korea's interactions with the global community.
