SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un used a Russian luxury limousine gifted by President Vladimir Putin, Kim’s sister said Saturday, praising the car’s “special function” and the two countries’ deepening bilateral ties. “The special function of the private car is perfect and can be thoroughly trusted,” Kim Yo Jong said, without specifying. Kim Jong Un, 40, possess a collection of foreign-made luxury cars believed to have been smuggled into his country. North Korea’s state media separately reported Saturday that Kim Jong Un guided his troops conducting parachuting training the previous day. It’s unclear if Friday’s training was the same event in which Kim rode in the Russian limousine.
