NORTH Korea's leader, Kim Jong Un, is to attend a military parade in Beijing today with his Chinese and Russian counterparts, an event that analysts say could potentially demonstrate three-way unity against the United States.

Mr Kim arrived at a Beijing railway station and was greeted by senior Chinese officials yesterday.

China’s state-run Xinhua news agency released a photo of a smiling Mr Kim, dressed in a black suit and red tie, stepping off his train.

Mr Kim and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin are among 26 world leaders who will join China's President Xi Jinping to watch today’s massive military parade in Beijing that commemorates the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War and China's fight against Japan’s wartime aggression.
