Kim Jong Un’s overseas labour programme has forced thousands of North Koreans to live under life-threatening conditions across Russian cities, with their basic rights curtailed, to fund the authoritarian state’s nuclear and ballistic missile programmes, experts tell Arpan Rai
I’m not exactly going to defend the .ml crowd’s positions on North Korea, and certainly not going to argue in favor of North Korea’s living standards, but in all fairness, this really is more on Russia than North Korea. I doubt that Kim Jong Un said “and one shower a year” when cutting his agreement with Putin.
In all fairness, we’re talking about two violent dictatorships. Why are you giving either the benefit of the doubt when the topic is human rights violations?
Well, one violent dictatorship has been living under extreme global trade sanctions for the decades after they were a genocide. And the other is Russia. I think either way we’re should look at a story from a known propaganda source like the independent with a grain of salt

Considering how much hazing goes on with their own peers, it looks more like the Russian military experience has cruelty built in.
