Russian President Vladimir Putin has awarded North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il a medal marking the end of World War II, according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Nice gesture especially that when WWII ended Kim Jong-Il has three years. But for sure he fought bravely
Russia is preparing for a grand event on May 9 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II, inviting some 60 world leaders to the ceremony in Moscow. South Korean President Roh Moo-Hyun has accepted an invitation to attend the celebrations. North Korea's head of state has also been invited but it was uncertain whether a delegate from the communist state would attend.
I would love to see Kim and Bush celebrating the same thing. Anyway Im curious how many dictators will attend to this anniversary.

Putin, Kim Sign Strategic Alliance
By Paul Shin
The Associated Press
North Korean leader Kim Jong-il toured space science facilities Sunday, a day after holding summit talks with President Vladimir Putin that showcased a newfound strategic alliance between the two former ideological allies.
Amid tight security, Kim visited the Khrunichev space center outside Moscow, where he was shown a full-size replica of the Mir space station, Itar-Tass said. He also inspected workshops that make space rocket carriers.

President Bush will have to ask Putin about this next time they are trucking around his ranch.
