Is the UN doing the asking, or the No. Koreans? From the article : "Richardson had been in discussions with the North Korean mission to the United Nations in New York about the visit, Yonhap cited the source as saying."
Richardson seems to have the attitude that HE is the one and only conduit to the No. Koreans from the US. I gather that there has been no request from either the US or the UN for his meddling.
