VLADIVOSTOK (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 24th April, 2019) Russia's guard of honor is marching next to the Vladivostok train station, with the military orchestra rehearsing as part of last-minute preparations ahead of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's arrival, anticipated in the coming hours, a Sputnik correspondent reported from the scene.
Roads have been closed off next to the station, while nearby bus terminal has been cleared of all buses.
A red carpet was, meanwhile, rolled out from the Aeroexpress terminal building to the platform. A security officer with a black dog walked down the carpet.
Earlier in the day, Kim's armored train arrived at the Khasan railway station in Russia's Primorsky Territory, where he was welcomed with bread and salt.
After visiting the Russian-Korean House of Friendship, Kim has left Khasan and now is heading to Ussuriysk.
The first summit of President Vladimir Putin and Kim is scheduled to start in Vladivostok on Thursday.
A knowledgeable source told Sputnik last week that the meeting between Putin and Kim could be held at the Far Eastern Federal University. It was revealed on Monday that security measures had been enhanced at the university's campus.
