North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is visiting China Tuesday and Wednesday, Chinese state media announced.
中国国家媒体宣布，朝鲜领导人金正恩将于周二和周三访问中国。
It’s Kim’s first trip outside the country since his summit with US President Donald Trump in Singapore on June 12.
这是金正恩自6·12新加坡“特金会”后首次出访。
Some had been expecting Kim to visit China to brief President Xi Jinping on his meeting with Trump, the first between a North Korean leader and serving US President.
一些人士预计，金正恩访华意在向习近平主席通报他与特朗普会晤的相关情况。“特金会”为朝鲜领导人和美国在任总统之间的首次会晤。
Kim did not leave his country for the first six years of his rule, but this trip to China, North Korea’s only real ally, will be the young North Korean leader’s third in three months. He traveled to Beijing in late March and to the northeastern city of Dalian in May.
金正恩执政的前六年从未出访，但是此次访华将是其在三个月内第三次出访。他于三月末访问了北京，并于五月访问了中国东北城市大连。中国是朝鲜唯一真正的盟友。
It is rare for state media from either Beijing or Pyongyang to announce a trip by North Korea’s leader ahead of time or as it is happening. Kim’s other trips to China this year were revealed after the visits were completed.
中国或朝鲜的国家媒体在金正恩访问前或访问中宣布其行程十分罕见。金正恩今年的访华都是在完成后宣布的。
It is unclear who is joining Kim on the visit.
尚不清楚谁将与金正恩一起出访。
