UN GATE / SDNY,
April 6 –
North Korea is on a roll,
firing missiles in disregard
of resolutions of the
toothless UN Security Council.
On April 6, US Department of
State Special Representative
for the Democratic People's
Republic of Korea Sung Kim
held a press call on which he
spoke about a US draft
resolution on North Korea as
if it had a chance in the
failed UN Security Council.
But of course it
doesn't. Why
pretend?
On April 5, Ukraine's
Zelenskyy correctly said that
the UN and its Security
Council have failed on
Somalia, Syria, Yemen,
Afghanistan and Libya, and
called for it to be dissolved
(like the League of Nations).
Video & commentary here.
He could have
added: North Korea.
While some say that at least
the UN is reporting on North
Korea, for example on
crypto-currency thefts and
sanctions, these reports are
routinely blocked or undermine
by UNSG Anotonio Guterres'
good friend China. The UN is a
failure, and bans the Press
that asks. We'll have more on
this.
