North Korea’s state-run news agency says leader Kim Jong-un met with Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Thursday. 

The Korean Central News Agency said Friday that Kim warmly greeted Wang and expressed joy meeting him again after a month. 

The report said that Kim and Wang discussed the issue of improving Pyongyang-Beijing relations and cooperation as well as the direction and outlook of situations on the Korean Peninsula. 

The report said that Kim reaffirmed North Korea and China’s stances on key issues and expressed deep satisfaction. 
    
Wang's visit to the North came after President Moon Jae-in and Kim held a historic summit last Friday.  

It was the first visit to North Korea by a Chinese foreign minister in eleven years.
