North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will begin a two-day visit to China on Tuesday, Chinese state media reported, his third visit to the country since March.
Why it matters: The trip comes just one week after Kim's historic summit with President Trump in Singapore, which resulted in the U.S. halting military exercises with South Korea, and a promise from North Korea to commit to denuclearization. Kim's prior trips to China were not announced until after they were over.
