North Korean leader Kim Jong Un arrived in Russia on Tuesday for a meeting with President Vladimir Putin, amid warnings from the U.S. that the two countries could strike an arms deal.

Kim departed Pyongyang in a high security luxury armored train on Sunday afternoon. This is the first time Kim has left North Korea since the COVID-19 pandemic. His last time leaving the country was during the 2019 Koreas DMZ Summit organized by the United States under the Trump Administration.

“It would be a ‘win-win’ deal for both, as Putin is cornered over his exhausted weapons inventory while Kim faces pressure from the South Korea-U.S.-Japan trilateral cooperation,” Nam Sung-wook, a former director of the South Korean think tank Institute for National Security Strategy, told the Associated Press. “Their needs are matched perfectly now.”
