Kim and Putin will meet in Russia's far east in the city Vladivostok.

 

They'll reportedly hold the summit at a local university.

 

North Korean state media says Kim is traveling with an entourage of top party officials.

 

It's the first time in eight years that North Korean and Russian heads of state will meet.

 

Kim wants the United Nations to lift international economic sanctions against North Korea.

 

He'll likely ask Putin for help.

 

So far, Kim's efforts with the U.S. on sanctions have shown little progress.
