North Korea Takes Over UN Nuclear Disarmament Body

Who can give the UN any credibility at this point?

"It gained the presidency of the Conference on Disarmament because it rotates alphabetically among its 65 members.

"The DPRK remains committed to contributing to global peace and disarmament and attaches importance to the work of the conference," Ambassador Han Tae Song told the Geneva meeting, saying it was an "honour and a privilege" to hold the role.

The nuclear-armed state fired several missiles last week, including one thought to be its largest intercontinental ballistic missile.

Western envoys took turns to condemn Pyongyang's actions on Thursday, with Australia describing them as "destabilising".

However, they did not heed a call to walk-out of the meeting as requested by dozens of NGOs, witnesses said. Instead, some diplomatic missions sent lower-level representatives than the ambassadors who would typically be expected to attend.

The overall reaction from the floor was seen by observers as mild compared to the reaction to Syria's presidency of the same body in 2018. During that meeting, Canada read out the testimonies of Syrian chemical attack survivors' accounts in protest.

Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, which monitors the performance of the global body, saidNorth Korea‘s chairmanship would "seriously undermine the image and credibility of the United Nations".

"This can only highlight the irrelevance of the CD in the current context," said Marc Finaud, an expert at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy, said of North Korea‘s role."

So that means North Korea will disarm the whole world while simultaneously be arming themselves to the teeth.

Yah, this will end well.

But wait the USA runs OPCW and is one of the very last handful of ones that haven't destroyed their massive stockpile of chem weapons so is that any different?

best korea

Makes perfect sense. Next, they'll join NATO.

The US has dishonored its own signature under the UNSC resolution 2202. So, what's your point?

This resolution requires Ukraine to implement the Minsk agreements as prescribed or be punished for violating them. Russia is punishing Ukraine for violating the agreements while the US calls it an "unprovoked and unjustified brutal invasion of a sovereign state."

Ukraine has publicly and without a permission from the guarantor of peace to the Minsk agreements, Russia, and without a permission of the UNSC, rejected the not optional Minsk agreements and got caught in the process of secretly preparing to solve the Donbass conflict by a military force.

Just another reason the UNITED NITWITS are irrelevant.

can you explain this like Im 5?

How can North Korea be a part of anything?

They are a rogue nation that constantly threatens other nations...

How can North Korea 'take over' anything?

NK are probably the only country still actively not being part of the NWO at this point.
Western democracy if left on its current inevitable trend, is no better than their communism.
When the west falls to global communism, which is what the WEF are doing using capitalist wealth to facilitate, it will be aligned with North Korea.
