North Korea has announced the publication of a white paper criticising the human rights situation in South Korea, condemning the Park Geun Hye administration as puppets under the rule of an American colony.
In a piece published by the official newspaper Rodong Sinmun on 30 April entitled, Denounce the South Chosun Human Rights Situation - the Worst in the World, it was written: The South says it has a government and law, but they are nothing more than puppets. They are merely a tool used by the Americans in their colonial rule.
The people of South Chosun are deprived of everything thanks to America. When human rights are infringed upon there is not even a place you can go to complain."
The statement comes as international interest grows in the North Korean human rights situation in the wake of the recent report by the UN inquiry detailing evidence of systemic and widespread human rights violations perpetrated by the regime.
