North Koreans tell BBC of neighbours starving to death – BBC News
A diplomat’s job is traditionally to represent their country’s interests while maintaining good relations with their host nation. But some of Donald Trump’s ambassadors are taking a different approach.
On Tuesday, Kimberly Guilfoyle resigned from her ambassadorship in Greece after serious allegations were raised about her conduct. According to reporting by the Wall Street Journal, the former fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. allegedly asked a Trump donor to pay off her $100,000 Amex bill — allegations she denies.
Guilfoyle is not the only ambassador to have caused a stir. US envoys around the world have sparked diplomatic rows, controversy and, in some cases, appeared to step beyond the traditional boundaries of their role.
What do Donald Trump’s ambassador picks, and their conduct, tell us about the new way that America does diplomacy?
Reuters’ senior White House correspondent, Humeyra Pamuk, breaks down how Trump’s ambassadors are breaking with tradition.

Katie Zacharia is “transitioning out” of her role as White House press secretary, the White House has confirmed to the BBC.
They did not provide a timeline for when she would be leaving the position.
US President Donald Trump earlier said he told Zacharia to “reconsider” her role.
He said he told her, “You don’t have to do this”, after her debut in the briefing room earlier this week.
Zacharia has been treated “very, very badly” by the media in recent days, Trump told reporters outside the White House.

Four members of the Canadian military have died and dozens were injured in a major fire at a base in the province of Alberta on Saturday.
Addressing the nation on Sunday from Ottawa, Prime Minister Mark Carney described it as “one of the worst tragedies for the forces on Canadian soil in peacetime”.
The fire broke out at about 16:00 local time (22:00 GMT) on Saturday at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright, one of the country’s busiest military training bases, and is now contained. Its cause is still unclear, but officials said it did not appear tied to “terrorist activity”.

Truly difficult to keep faith when you have prayed for answers why this is allowed to happen. The Kim regime should have never been in control for over 70 years. Who knows what the poor is going through in North Korea.

Amazing how secure and controlled North Korea is, yet the BBC can get in touch with a network of insiders who can talk about their current experience. Are these people really living in North Korea? Or are they defectors living in South Korea and then telling their stories. The worse the story the more western media lap it up. Read Atrocity Fabrication and its consequences by A. B. Abrahams, this will give you a broader view.

Korean peninsula was having southern portion plain , fit for agriculture. While, North was mountainous and plateau. When Korean peninsula was divided , northern was having only 15 percent as plain , most was plateau. This is main reason of North Korea food crisis. After, break of Soviet union aid has also dwindled.

The UN Charter has indicated in document called "Who we are" that in 2024 there will the summit called Pact for the Future. Attended by leaders and academics that have vacated their position so they can be freed up to administer the next global shock. The purpose will be to bring about gradual control over every aspect of society: science, food, education and manufacturing. Has this been confirmed, or is it gossip?

What North Korean people should do is overthrow Kim Jong-Un and tell him that his government is broken and doing nothing to stop a famine. The money which is stolen go to the missiles and doesn't do anything to properly improve the way of living. China can turn this country around but simply choose not to do it. Even with American sanctions their are simple things to improve the way of living and when people in the country reveal the truth and not what Kim Jong-un gaslights them to say or believe then that shows his government needs to liaten to constructive criticism which is a death penalty in the country.

Let’s look at why North Korean citizens are living in a state of fear and unhappiness. The resources are there for everyone to live well and for the nation to prosper
