NORTH KOREA UN report: 100,000 Pyongyang workers abroad to circumvent sanctions

The vast majority are in Russia and the People's Republic of China, despite being banned by the resolution against the North Korean nuclear programme. Part of their salary is retained by the agencies that expatriated them and goes to finance the North Korean government, which would like to increase this contingent to 400,000.
