Re: N Korea Attempts Censorship
Date: October 23, 1997
Associated Press is reporting that North Korea has threatened to halt any further POW-MIA cooperation. The threat comes as part of North Korea's demand that Americans who traveled to the Communist nation last week report only 'positive' comments with respect to the country. The Korean - Cold War Association of the Missing visited North Korea as part of a delegation seeking answers for the nearly 8,100 men who remain unaccounted for there. Family members were astonished to find their questions unanswered and the issue set aside while being repeatedly admonished that any and everything they say back in the states would be monitored and any negative comments or impressions would result in the shutdown of North Korean cooperation.
