North Korea’s ‘disregard’ for citizens starving eight million
– Daily Telegraph:
“At least 8 million people are facing food shortages in North Korea because of the “callous” disregard of its Stalinist military dictatorship for the wellbeing of ordinary citizens, a UN human rights investigator has warned.”
– “Visit Muntarbhorn, the UN’s special rapporteur on human rights in the North, said that Pyongyang’s “military first” policy, which places military prowess over meeting basic needs, had left millions hungry.”
