Prison Camps: Freeze Kim

prison camps: According to the sources, the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is considering proposing sanctions to freeze Kim's assets, according to The Japan Times. But it remains unknown what assets would be affected. But China and Russia are expected to oppose doing so, arguing it runs counter to seeking a peaceful resolution through dialogue. ; Washington has apparently suggested that Kim be named to further tighten the screws on Pyongyang, which continues to pursue its nuclear ambitions despite international pressure to stop. Last year, Washington unilaterally imposed sanctions on Kim and 10 other top officials for North Korea's poor human rights record and abuses in its notorious prison camps, marking the first time it attempted to pressure the top leadership through sanctions. Negotiations within the 15-member U.N. Security Council on North Korean sanctions are mainly led by Beijing, which is the North's closest ally and biggest trading partner, and the United States. Past U.N. Security Council resolutions have not imposed sanctions on the North Korean leader on an individual basis. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
