DPRK's Kim to visit Russia in spring or summer: RIA cites lawmaker

DPRK's leader Kim Jong Un will visit Russia for talks this spring or summer, RIA news agency cited Russian lawmaker Alexander Bashkin as saying on Monday.

The exact date of the trip has not been set yet, Bashkin said.

The United States last week imposed new sanctions on DPRK over its nuclear weapons program, the first such steps since a U.S.-DPRK summit collapsed last month.
