Why is Kim Jong Un’s train in discussion?
Just like in 2019, Kim Jong Un reached the Russian city of Vladivostok from Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, by train. There is a lot of discussion about this armored train of Kim. It is believed that Kim Jong Un, like his father Kim Jong Il, is afraid of air travel, so he only travels by train. About 20 armored vehicles of Kim’s fleet are loaded in this train. Due to heavy weight, the speed of this train is also not high. It is only 60 kilometers per hour. The distance from Pyongyang to Vladivostok is about 1200 kilometers. The train took about 20 hours to cover this distance.
