Aka "Time for the regular aid request". Either from China for being a good pe(s)t or the UN and US for promising to stop nuclear tests.

The fact that their population suffers famine nearly every goddamn year is just unbelievably sad.

How those people put up with it, I don't understand. They really managed to create a feudal country in a modern world. Could others do the same if left unchecked?

People en masse are willfully gullible when it comes for propaganda. Just look at the vaccine mandates.

I myself is from USSR, and when i see photos from NK i see that my past, and i really don't know how they today (or we back then) could get out of that situation until the system crumbles on its own.

Do you see any other way for Afghanistan for example?
