North Korea - June 11th, 2014

North Korea threatens to "ruthlessly punish" anyone involved with a planned UN office in Seoul that documents the human rights abuses in North Korea. After releasing a report of human rights in North Korea in Februrary, the UN decided to set up a field office in Seoul in order to monitor the human rights in the North. However, North Korean Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland claimed that this UN office is a "politically motivated provocation" carried out by Washington and Seoul. http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2014/06/11/2014061101402.html
