After a high-profile meeting with Vladimir Putin, North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un’s team was on a mission: erase every trace of his DNA. Caught on camera, Kim’s aides were spotted scrubbing surfaces, sanitising tables, and carefully collecting his drinking glass after a two-hour chat with the Russian president during China’s massive ‘Victory Day’ parade.
It seems Kim isn’t taking any chances when it comes to espionage or assassination threats. The North Korean leader even travelled to the event via an armoured train, complete with a personal lavatory to ensure no “samples” were left behind for foreign intelligence to collect.
Experts note that this kind of meticulous clean-up procedure is standard for Kim’s entourage. It aims to keep potential insights into the leader’s health tightly under wraps. The same drill reportedly took place following his 2019 summit with Donald Trump.
At the parade, Kim, Putin, and Xi Jinping were front and centre as they showcased military might to the world. The event symbolised a strong alliance between the trio, with Kim expressing his unwavering support for Russia—a gesture that reinforces speculation about North Korea’s involvement on Russia’s side in the Ukraine conflict.
Heads of over 20 countries, including India’s Narendra Modi and Iran’s Masoud Pezeshkian, attended the gathering, witnessing the display of camaraderie and power. Meanwhile, the clean-up efforts post-meeting have grabbed the world’s attention, highlighting Kim’s constant vigilance and the lengths he’ll go to protect his secrets.
