Top North Korea General Declares Solidarity with Cuba
North Korea's army chief of staff said Friday in Havana his country is "in the same trench" as Cuba, local television reported.
General Kyok Sik Kim, who arrived a day earlier in the Americas' only Communist-run nation, said he was there "to find colleagues in the same trench: the Cuban comrades."
The general laid a wreath at the tomb of independence hero Antonio Maceo and visited a tank unit, accompanied by his local counterpart General Alvaro Lopez Miera.
He is due to stay in the Caribbean island nation until Monday.
