Very often it is possible to read some juicy details in the local Russian newspapers. We have to wait a few days.

Any details ever come out on this?
Granted, if this yacht involved the Russian mob or a Russian intelligence operation of some sort, the Russian media will not report anything. But if this was a screwup by the North Koreans, or worse yet, an attempt by the Kim dynasty to extort something from Putin, the Russians would have every motive to report their success story in reading the riot act to the North Koreans.
I’m interested, and would be amused to learn how a trained KGB operative and leader deals with the North Koreans. Russians can do things a normal Western country can’t, and also can do things an Asian country won’t.
In dealing with North Korea, the Russians could become useful if sufficiently provoked to annoyance.
