China ‘sent medical experts’ to advise on North Korea’s Kim Jong-un
Description
April 25, 2020
China has allegedly dispatched a team to North Korea to advise on the health of leader Kim Jong-un, according to three sources. The North Korean leader is said to be receiving treatment after undergoing a cardiovascular procedure early this month, reported a South Korean media outlet, amid speculation over Kim's health following his absence from a key anniversary event. The group's trip, which included medical experts, doctors and officials came amid conflicting reports about the health of the North Korean leader.
