German automaker Daimler says it is unsure how North Korea’s controversial leader Kim Jong-Un was able to acquire two of its armored limousines.
According to reports, Kim has been traveling to high profile meetings, including summits with President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, in limousines built by Daimler. Current United Nations sanctions prevent the sale of luxury goods, including limousines, to North Korea. The Asian nation is also sanctioned by the United States, European Union and several other countries and international organizations.
