Opensession for The Trilateral Meeting on Human Rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Country Interception

Today, we have heard vivid voices revealing the harsh realities of human rights in North Korea.

Despite the significant efforts of the international community, NGOs, and expert groups, the oppression and control of the North Korean regime persist.

As marketization and the spread of information gradually take place within North Korea, the country is slowly changing from the ground up.

Even under the regime's suppression and control, outside information continues to flow in, and with it, the consciousness of the North Korean people is evolving.

Our unwavering attention and efforts are becoming a ray of hope that reaches even the most closed-off place on earth.

Our steadfast solidarity will inspire the North Korean people to yearn for freedom and human rights, ultimately driving change within North Korea.

I urge you to continue listening to the voices of North Korean human rights victims around the world and to amplify their voices, working tirelessly to promote human rights in North Korea.

Thank you.
