Expert says Pyongyang eager to criticize alleged abuses in other countries but bristles at any mention of its own
North Korea slammed the U.S. on Tuesday for requesting a U.N. Security Council (UNSC) meeting to discuss DPRK human rights abuses, calling August “the most shameful month in the history of the U.N.”
