“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).”
“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.
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.
