3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE LATEST PANEL OF EXPERTS REPORT ON NORTH KOREA

On 12 April, RUSI issued a Commentary says that the newest report by the UN Panel of Experts on North Korea shows that the country remains committed to its WMD pursuits. It also shows that after nearly 15 years of sanctions, countries continue to fail to implement adequate measures to prevent North Korea from accessing global financial channels.  The Commentary identifies the takeaways as –

North Korea continues to pursue WMD, but the UN Security Council is unlikely to Act;

Implementation efforts are still lacking, enabling sanctions evasion; and

North Korea continues to see cryptocurrency exchanges as low-hanging fruit
