North Korean Premier Pak Thae-song has begun his three-day trip to China, as Beijing offers rare praise for its socialist neighbour’s economic achievements.
Pak, a member of the Politburo Presidium of the ruling Workers’ Party of Korea, landed at Beijing Capital International Airport on Friday morning accompanied by a joint party and government delegation.
In a rare move early Friday, People’s Daily, a Communist Party newspaper, published an article praising important North Korean construction projects for “infusing socialist construction with robust vitality”.
