Xi's North Korea visit aims to showcase China's influence: analyst

At the summit in Pyongyang, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reaffirmed support for Beijing's "One China Principle," a move analysts interpret as part of China's broader diplomatic effort to consolidate international backing for its position on Taiwan. - REUTERS
