North Korea’s Supreme People’s Assembly has voted to scrap all agreements signed with South Korea on promoting economic cooperation, the North’s official KCNA news agency reported on Thursday, as the two Koreas’ relations continue to deteriorate sharply.
The assembly, which takes formal steps to adopt policy dictated by the ruling Workers’ Party, also voted to abolish laws governing economic ties with Seoul, including the special law on the operation of the Mount Kumgang tourism project.
The tours to the scenic mountain just north of the eastern border were a symbol of an economic cooperation that began during a period of engagement between the two Koreas in early 2000s, drawing nearly 2 million South Korean visitors.
The project was suspended in 2008 after a South Korean tourist who strayed into a restricted zone was shot and killed by North Korean guards.
Would we? How is that spending in Ukraine going?
Ukraine is a different story because Putin has NOT used nukes.
I see. So we do nothing when it is easy for us but we will act when it is dangerous for us?
Yes, that sounds like something we would do.
The US is in a perpetual conundrum where if they intervene, they get shit on for acting like the world police, but if they don’t, they get shit on for not helping.
Why do you think that is? Do you think 2003 might have had something to do with that?
