North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is en route to China aboard one of his heavily armored 'moving fortress' trains, state media reported Monday, as he prepares to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Putin at a Beijing military parade. The 41-year-old dictator is expected to arrive in Beijing, marking a significant diplomatic move by North Korea. Kim's arrival is also seen as an opportunity for him to strengthen ties with China, which has been a key ally of the isolated nation. The meeting will be held during the annual National Day Parade in Beijing.
