United States:

“5. North Korean Overseas Workers (OP8): Requires countries to expel all North Korean laborers earning income abroad immediately but no later than 24 months later (end of 2019).”

United Nations:

“Strengthens the ban on providing work authorizations for DPRK nationals by requiring Member States to repatriate all DRPK nationals earning income and all DPRK government safety oversight attachés monitoring DPRK workers abroad within their jurisdiction within 24 months from 22 December 2017.”

Meanwhile the DPRK has no official restriction on the people’s free movement.

Blaming others for one’s own actions has got to be one of the greatest propaganda achievements in human history.

    It is ironic how the US is causing all the protectionism and sanctions against their Liberal principle of free trade when the US had been criticizing anti-imperialists for the obstruction of free trade. It is as if the Pax Americana advocates were projecting their anti-Liberal actions on people of colors who demand democracy, meritocracy, and rule of law. Is the Western European liberals also the ones who provide the most support for command economy with the Bretton Woods Institutions that became the de facto government on the global economy even when they tried to deny this hypocrisy with their redefinition of Capitalism (government by for-profit firm owner), Socialism (government by working class), and dictatorship of the Proletariat (government by workers in modern American redefinition)?

      I read somewhere that the DPRK is sitting on several trillions of dollars worth of raw materials. Allowing the DPRK to trade freely would mean they could move massive amounts of goods, making them a rich country. And then people would see how socialism could benefit a country and revolt lol.
