Russia Invites North Korean Leader To Moscow For May Visit -- Reuters
(Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has invited North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to Moscow next year to mark the 70th anniversary of the Soviet defeat of Nazi Germany in World War Two, the Kremlin's spokesman said on Friday.
It would be Kim's first foreign visit since taking the helm of the reclusive east Asian state in 2011. His personal envoy came to Moscow last month in the framework of efforts by the two Cold War-era allies to improve relations.
"Yes, such an invitation was sent," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the state news agency TASS. Russia marks the former Soviet Union's World War Two victory every year on May 9.

"Childrens' Foodstuff Factory", gets a 9.8 on the irony scale.
Putin insists Russia is an innocent, peaceful nation with good intentions yet he wants to host the leader of the absolute worst country in the world. And wonders why the rest of the world is against Russia. Delusional!
What do the Russian people think of this?
I cannot speak for the Russian people .... but in my case .... my eyes are rolling.
Assassination attempt. Don't do it Kim! ;)
