North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is on his way to Hanoi via train ahead of the second North Korea-U.S. summit.
The North's official Korean Central News Agency reported that Kim left Pyeongyang on Saturday afternoon.
According to AFP, his train is heading South without stopping at Beijing,... which means he will not be meeting Chinese leader Xi Jinping ahead of his summit with President Trump.
Kim is expected to arrive at Dong Dang Station in Lang Son province-- a city on the Vietnam-China border on Tuesday morning.
There,... he will likely transfer by car to Hanoi.
The Vietnamese government will reportedly ban all vehicles along the 170-kilometer road between the border station and Hanoi... when Kim's vehicle convoy is on the move.
