About this listen
North Korea has not had access to the broad global economy essentially since its inception but things ratcheted up in the early 2000s when the US started officially sanctioning North Korea. In this episode, hosts Sug and Dan discuss sanctions that the US and UN have imposed on North Korea mostly due to their nuclear program. Dan and producer Jay have also experienced their lifetime bans from various US institutions for various activities and both examples are surprisingly analogous to North Korea's ban from the global markets and have pushed them to make alliances with Russia, China and others.
But are sanctions effective? What will happen if and when North Korea becomes a fully nuclear state? Also, is this moral? We discuss a little bit of all of this in our episode.
