The European Union’s potential designation of North Korea’s Songdowon International Children’s Camp is likely to strike a nerve in Pyongyang, shrinking room for future dialogue and fueling tensions between the DPRK and the West, experts told NK News.

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) reported Tuesday that the EU plans to slap sanctions on Songdowon as part of a new package targeting Russia over its war against Ukraine, citing a draft of the sanctions.

If it materializes, the move would mirror the U.K.’s designation of Songdowon in May, which sparked a diplomatic scandal and ultimately led North Korea to downgrade ties
