Prim Jong-un! Dictator's VERY tidy Pyongyang residence is revealed in never-before-seen photos
Daily Mail ^ | 06/02/2018 | By GEORGE MARTIN

Kim Jong-un's opulent palace has been revealed in a series of remarkable photographs which give a tantalising glimpse into the life of the reclusive North Korean leader.

The pictures, taken at an unknown location near the North Korean capital Pyongyang, show his modern residence - complete with pristine gardens and a minimalist interior.

Valery Sharifulin, a Russian journalist, was given unique access to Kim's mansion while Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov visited Pyongyang.

Lavrov met with Kim while a former North Korean spy chief travelled to New York and met with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in an attempt to salvage a summit between President Trump and Kim.

President Donald Trump signaled on Thursday that he still expects to meet with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un on June 12 in Singapore, saying he's 'hopeful' that the summit will happen as scheduled.

He also confirmed that a North Korean delegation would 'probably' be coming to Washington on Friday to hand-deliver a letter from the North Korean dictator.

Kim Jong-un's house: A Russian photojournalist was given access to one of the North Korean dictator's lavish homes at an undisclosed location near Pyongyang. According to the tyrant's former bodyguard Lee Young-kuk, the North Korean leader keeps at least eight separate palaces outside the capital. Although Kim has several palaces, pictures of them are hard to come by because the North Korean government has put in place tight security measures to make sure very few photographs exist

Democrats long to have a society like this:

Where they have luxury homes

While we "peasants" live in squalor:

Maybe but likely not. For we have good satellite intelligence of all of his dachas and we also have adequate SIGINT, ELINT and sat monitoring 24/7 (and maybe even human assets on the ground) to know where Fat Bastard is most of the time. It is the aspect of clear ground photos of these facilities that helps in targeting them for destruction. I am sure they are being gone over in great detail at CIA and DIA.

Further, the information is that Ri Sol Ju, the current wife of KJU and in the picture above in the cream-colored suit, was behind Hyon’s execution. Pretty sweet, huh? Nice sweet girl in her designer closes and with a fancy Italian handbag. Every bit low life scum as the scum bag with the bad haircut next to her, who has similiarly order hundreds if not thousands to their deaths, some by very horrid manners with families forced to look on.

The best photo was the ‘surprised cyclist’. From his expression, it appears that he thinks he’s been photographed by the secret police, and is headed to a concentration camp.

I didn’t expect that NK had the potential to develop such a beautiful environment.

His house looks like the tacky strip shopping centers we have all over DFW.

Those pictures you showed are better than a lot of the Caribbean was, even before the hurricanes.

I doubt it. The CIA has been too tied up with spying on EOH’S and staffing news outlets with assets to do message control and psyops than to have the time to do Intel on our foreign enemies.

I love the beautiful jand crafted stone walls in the village, topped with cinder blocks and slip cast mortar.

As a fan of history it is a time marker for when things got bad. Like rings on a tree.

Check it out closely. Utility poles but no wires, transformers, or terminating insulators. Why the poles then? Just to tease?

Everything in N.Korea is smoke and mirrors. You cannot believe what you see especially if the state is showing it.

Doesn’t look like a palace at all....you’re right..a business park and probably not even in N.Korea.

From the pic of the Kims, it appears congratulations are in order. He appears to be in his 3rd trimester.
