North Korean leader Kim Jong-il is returning to his homeland after talks with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and visiting the east Siberian republic of Buryatia, a government spokesman for the republic said on Wednesday. Kim, who is traveling in his own armored train, arrived on Tuesday in Ulan-Ude, the capital of Buryatia. "The main purpose [of the visit] was to meet with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev [in Buryatia]," the spokesman said. The meeting was held on Wednesday in the military town of Sosnovy Bor. One of the main results after negotiations was the start of cooperation in the gas industry.
