    Poor innocent DPRK. I wonder what they could have done to be put under UN sanctions?

    Surely not trying to liberate their own country after the US violently disbanded the democratic provisional government in the south, formed a right wing military dictatorship, and started killing pro democracy protestors by the tens of thousands. That would be fucked up if they were sanctioned for that.

    If youre not going to read a history book on the conflict written from an anticolonialist perspective at least listen to the blowback season on the Korean war.

    It's 2023. They're an independent country that spends a disproportionate amount of money trying to develop weapon systems to threaten the US, Japan and South Korea (none of whom are threatening them) while it's own citizens starve. That might have something to do with the sanctions that the UN placed on them.
