Aren’t we Americans still shipping metric tons of grain to North Korea? At least their military will have bread.

Here are some links on the food and other economic situations in N. Korea. The first link has a series of articles covering the last 2 years—drought, flood, less oil from China, less coal to China, etc. The first article June this year refers to this as the hungry time before the fall harvest comes in. Also reports on “agricultural” and “forestry reform” and likely bad impact on production. Love those Socialist remedies!!
The second link (2014) from the UK Guardian debates the ethics of providing or not providing food aid to NK.
