North Korean Defectors:![]()
South Korea celebrated its first Defectors’ Day on July 14th, honoring the 34,000 North Koreans who have resettled there. The occasion was underscored by the defection of Ri Il-kyu, a senior North Korean diplomat in Cuba, highlighting his disillusionment with the regime. The number of defectors has dwindled due to stringent Chinese border controls and intensified internal repression in North Korea, as highlighted by reports of severe consequences for those attempting to flee.![]()

This change aims to help North Korea develop technologically and connect more with the world, despite their ongoing issues with the US and concerns about Western culture.![]()

Church Buildings In North Korea:![]()
After World War II, North Korea allied with the Soviet Union and adopted communism. Christians faced harsh persecution, and even though North Korea later created a Korean Christian Federation and built a few church buildings in Pyongyang, these are essentially for show. They only hold services when foreigners visit, hiding the fact that North Korean citizens cannot freely practice their faith. It's a facade of religious freedom, masking severe restrictions and oppression. During his brief visit, the Russian leader Putin visited the Russian Orthodox Church in North Korea.![]()

Repressive Regime:![]()
North Korea has become more isolated, repressive and brutal, since the COVID-19 pandemic. As Human Rights Watch documented in a recent report, the North Korean government enforced stringent measures, placing extreme and unnecessary restrictions on peoples’ most basic freedoms. Measures included enhanced border controls, regional lockdowns and severe restrictions on trade and movement, ultimately tightening the government’s control over virtually every aspect of its people’s lives.![]()
