“The Jan. 6 missile launch shows exactly where this blood money ends up. The DPRK sacrifices its own people to fulfill its nuclear ambitions and further contributes to deaths and destruction in Ukraine. North Korean troops, deployed to Russia, are essentially slaves to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, who are brainwashed to sacrifice their lives on faraway battlefields to raise money for the Kim regime and secure advanced military technology from Russia. This is why I repeatedly emphasize that we need to look at both nuclear and human rights issues of the DPRK simultaneously at the Security Council. The human rights situation in the DPRK remains intrinsically linked to international peace and security.”
