N. Korea circulates draft U.N. resolution on own human rights issues

(16. Oktober) North Korea circulated a draft U.N. resolution Wednesday that signals its willingness to engage in human rights dialogue and calls on the international body to positively respond to its efforts.

The text specifically welcomes the North‘s willingness „for human rights dialogue and cooperation.“ It also encourages member states „to resume the human rights dialogue between the DPRK and the countries concerned, contributing to removal of mutual concerns and misunderstanding.“
