What's the trade amount? India is part of the governments who have implemented UN sanctions against DPRK. I just hope BFC players are treated well and get out there safely post the match.
During Korean War, India sent Medical help to both sides. We were like peacemakers - original idea of UN. Both South and North Korea were thankful to India for Medical help, Doctors, Nurses as well as POW return.
North Korea's top export destinations include China at $2.3 billion, India at $97.8 million, Pakistan at $43.1 million, Burkina Faso at $32.8 million and a handful of other Asian countries at $26.7 million. Imports largely come from China at $2.95 billion, India at $108 million, Russia at $78.2 million, Thailand at $73.8 million and the Philippines at $53.2 million.
2015 data. After this India banned many trade items with NK. Still the figure is high
These countries are not hostile as projected by USA and allies. apart from politics BFC first test will began tomorrow. April 25 was not great before the rain in BLR also. Hopefully we will have cracker of game. We never outplayed in away games last season in AFC Cup, worst game was against Tampines. Hopefully we will do good tomorrow.
Honestly I have never seen a US report on North Korea that said it was dangerous for foreigners to go to NK. Yes, there is a lot of anti-NK stuff and if you believed the news, you would think that you will be trapped forever, but there have been interviews with Americans who go and say that even though they were monitored a lot and felt watched, they were relatively safe.
