On the eve of a summit with President Trump, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s spirits were apparently dashed when Dutch officials seized 90,000 bottles of vodka bound for the Hermit Kingdom, according to reports.

Customs agents at the port of Rotterdam discovered the 3,000 boxes of Russian booze on Friday in a Chinese ship on a tip from Russia’s foreign ministry, the UK’s Telegraph reported.

Dutch newspaper AD said the vodka was believed to be destined for Kim and his top generals.

“It’s an incredible story — it’s like something you read in a thriller,” customs agency spokesman Roul Velleman told Agence France-Presse.

“Sources indicated to us that a container was destined for North Korea. That was reason enough for us to act,” Velleman added.

The boxes had been placed inside a container loaded in Hamburg, Germany, aboard the container ship Nebula.

Searching the container proved difficult because it was hidden beneath an aircraft fuselage that had to be lifted by crane.

“That wasn’t easy,” said Velleman, who declined to confirm that the vodka was headed to Kim, whose regime remains under UN sanctions over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs.

The vodka had been recorded as being due for unloading in China, according to the Guardian of the UK.

Arno Kooij, the customs officer in charge of the seizure, told the Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad that “based on the information we had, we suspected that this container would fall under the sanctions regime for North Korea.

“We suspected that this vodka would not go to China, but to North Korea,” he added.

Sigrid Kaag, the Dutch minister for foreign trade, told the AD that she ordered the confiscation of the vodka because “the import of luxury goods is also included” in UN sanctions.

“It is therefore entirely justified that the customs finally removed that container,” Kaag said.

Velleman said the bottles will either be destroyed or sold.

“It hasn’t been decided yet,” he said.

North Korea’s diminutive despot is known to have a taste for the high life. Last year, it was claimed he had spent more than $4 billion on luxury imports from China since taking power in 2011.
