North Korean leader Kim Jong-un welcomed Russian President Putin in Pyongyang at a bilateral meeting. Putin's visit was initially delayed, but both leaders eventually met at the airport, where Kim waited on the red carpet. The visit included a grand welcoming ceremony at Kim Il Sung Square and a visit to various landmarks. Notable was the presence of a mysterious long-haired woman speculated to be Kim Jong-un's rumored girlfriend, Hyon Song-wol. After meeting at the airport, the two leaders proceeded to the Kumsusan Guest House and later participated in a formal meeting. Putin expressed gratitude for North Korea's unwavering support of Russia's policies and emphasized mutual interests and respect between the two nations. The day ended with a large performance and a state banquet for Putin, marking the end of his brief visit to North Korea after 24 years. Comparison of the welcoming activities to Xi Jinping's visit in 2019 showed a relatively subdued reception for Putin, possibly due to the timing of his arrival.
