Kim Jong-un was compared to Hitler for one detail

Daily Mail: DPRK leader Kim Jong-un spotted wearing a Third Reich-style leather coat

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un appears after more than a month of absence in a black leather cloak, reminiscent of those worn by the leaders of the Third Reich. Because of this detail of the wardrobe, the Daily Mail compared the politician to the Nazi Germany's Fuhrer Adolf Hitler.

As the newspaper notes, the DPRK leader visited new facilities under construction in the North Korean metropolis near the city of Samjiyon in the north-east of the country. This was the first public appearance of the politician since October 11.

At the same time, as can be seen in the published photographs, during the trip, Kim Jong-un was wearing a long double-breasted leather coat. A similar style at one time, in addition to Hitler, was preferred by the imperial minister of public education and propaganda of Germany Joseph Goebbels and Reichsfuehrer SS Heinrich Himmler, the newspaper writes. In addition, such raincoats were popular among Soviet politicians, in particular, one of the similar models was worn by the leader of the USSR, Joseph Stalin.

In early September, Kim Jong-un appeared at the military parade in honor of the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the DPRK. Then the media and social media users noticed that the North Korean leader had lost a lot of weight and looked younger. In addition, Western publications noticed that the politician changed his suit in the style of the creator of the People's Republic of China, Mao Zedong, for a light suit in European style with a tie.
