Kim Jong-un arrived in Vietnam for his second summit with Donald Trump

The North Korean chief, Kim Jong-un, arrived in Hanoi on Tuesday, subject to strong security measures, where an enthusiastic crowd greeted him before his second summit with Donald Trump, from which progress is expected on the vague declaration signed at the previous meeting.

After the historic June meeting in Singapore with the US President, which only ended with a declaration on denuclearization, badysts believe that this second appointment should be settled by more concrete measures on the dismantling of the arsenal of Pyongyang.

The normally quiet Vietnamese railway station of Dong Dang, border with China, She was in full dress for Kim's arrival after a 4,000-kilometer trip aboard her olive-green armored train from Pyongyang. This is the first trip of a North Korean leader to Vietnam since his grandfather, Kim Il Songin 1964.

White uniformed military guards greeted Kim while they were traveling on a red carpet surrounded by badistants and security personnel.

Several schoolchildren waving North Korean flags welcomed the regime's number one at the gates of the train station. Dressed in her traditional Mao-style outfit, Kim greeted the crowd with a smile, before boarding a Mercedes Benz and leaving in a convoy with her bodyguards to Hanoi.

The US president, who has opted for a more conventional route during his trip to Hanoi with his Air Force One, will land Tuesday afternoon in the Vietnamese capital.

Donald Trump wanted to be optimistic about this appointment, baduring Monday to Twitter is looking forward to "a very productive summit".

There are very few details about the meeting. The two leaders will be dining together Wednesday evening with some of their advisors, White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders told reporters on board Air Force One.
