“luxury goods such as wristwatches and televisions in bulk”
A country full of starving people and dilapidated cities. Aint tyranny grand.
And we're the fools who keep propping this regime up by providing foreign aid. We do not even get any influence for our money.
Here's an idea... not one single penny in aid of any sort, especially humanitarian aid, to North Korea until the Kim regime steps down and whatever government replaces it surrenders unconditionally.
I doubt the luxury goods were for his personal use. I would guess they are gifts for him to distribute to generals and his personal security guards.
