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. Member States are required to submit a midterm report after 15 months from 22 December and a final report after 27 months from 22 December to the Committee of all DPRK nationals that were repatriated based on this provision;
Pretty deliberately is meant to punish anyone caught hiring DPRK nationals, and repatriate any working overseas.
If DPRK nationals are barred from work, they are also often barred from trade, and barred from travel. Running airlines to and from the DPRK involves work, after all, and the DPRK would never allow another country to have their own airbase on their soil without intense agreements and concessions. They do travel and trade with Russia, China, and sometimes Cuba, and that’s because Russia and China have land bridges and trade with the DPRK. Here’s a an example of a DPRK restaurant in China. It’s staffed by DPRK nationals, and run by the DPRK state.
So they are barred from travel via plane because of NK decisions on airlines, and not banned from travel via other means (if we forget about frontier guards and all, ofc).
No? How do you have airline workers integrated with airports in hostile countries, that are supposed to repatriate anyone earning money there?
There probably could be workarounds, but it’s incredibly complicated, and there are tons of sanctions on the DPRK. They do travel to friendly countries, but there’s a ton of hostility towards them.
Because they could have airlines if they accepted foreigns workers. That part os the NK government decision, good or bad.
Let be clear : economic isolation of NK is a ofc product of both NK politics and UN embargos. But freedom of travel is not directly affected by UN. The first thing that stops NK people to travel is a border with armed guards, including with friendly states.
But they do travel to friendly states, I showed you how. The most common way to defect is to go to China and defect there, because that’s pretty easy. Prior to this order, DPRK nationals actually did do work around the world as well. Part of what’s keeping DPRK nationals in is their government, yes, but because the western world is extremely hostile to them.
From what i know
, it is not easy at all to neither go to China, neither “defect” there, neither defect from authoritarian communist countries nearby. What you ‘showed’ me is people working in China, so controlled travel.
Based on what i know, i take your affirmation that it is easy to defect frop China either as ignorance, either as propaganda. If you have good info on the traveling part, please share so i and others can learn. On the original matter, i think it’s not worth debating further if we do not share a same-ish perception of facts.
It’s more that I have yet to see good evidence or a goid argument to the contrary. Again, like I said, people from the DPRK do travel to Russia and China.

I was curious so i looked it up. Doesn’t exactly say that

It’s not about forbidding NK people to leave the country, it’s about working.

Cowbee has decided on a narrative and you can’t change his mind!
