China’s state-run news agency Xinhua said the two officials also discussed the “situation on the Korean peninsula,” and Zhao expressed Beijing’s willingness to “intensify legislative exchanges and cooperation”.
Choe and Zhao signed “relevant cooperation documents” in the fields of “mutual exemption of diplomatic visas between China and North Korea, mutual translation and publication of classic works, customs and quarantine, radio and television, and postal express delivery,” Xinhua said.

Pyongyang’s top exports include tungsten ore, ferroalloys and hair products such as fake eyelashes and wigs.
