North Korean Leader Reportedly Traveling in China – Philip P. Pan

From The Washington Post:

The reclusive leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Il, was reported to be traveling in China and perhaps Russia on Tuesday, after his government refused again to return to six-nation talks on dismantling its nuclear weapons program unless the United States lifts sanctions targeting its finances.

The Chinese government and the North Korean Embassy here declined to confirm Kim’s visit, maintaining the secrecy that has marked his three previous trips to China. But an official in the border city of Dandong said a special train from North Korea carrying Kim crossed into the country amid high security on Monday.
