Russia's TASS news agency quoted Putin's foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov as saying that Putin gave Kim a new Aurus vehicle and a tea set and that the items were among several gifts exchanged between the two leaders. .

This is the second Aurus car that Putin has gifted to Kim. According to Yonhap news agency, North Korea revealed in February that Putin had given Kim an Aurus limousine as a gift.

The first Aurus vehicle accompanied Putin from Kim Sun Airport to the Kumsusan Guest House after Putin arrived in the North Korean capital early Wednesday.

Photos released by Russian and other foreign media showed Putin and Kim driving around the guesthouse in New Aurus after the summit.

Giving Kim a vehicle as a gift is a violation of UN Security Council sanctions banning the supply, sale and transfer of luxury goods to North Korea under Resolution 2397 adopted in December 2017.
