b"We often talk about whether the sanctions against North Korea are working. And we have spoken occasionally on this very podcast about the ways North Korea also cheats and gets around sanctions.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nBut less frequently discussed at KEI or elsewhere in policymaking circles is whether it is ethical to impose the sanctions that we have on North Korea currently.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nTo discuss this issue, we have with us today Dr. Hazel Smith, a professorial research associate in Korean studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies and Professor Emerita of International Security at Cranfield University.\\n\\xa0\\nKEI Vice President Mark Tokola caught up with her for a discussion on this very important subject.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nYou can read more on Dr. Hazel Smith's research in an article recently published on the Pacific Forum. Link to the article here:\\xa0https://pacforum.org/publication/pacnet-24-the-destruction-of-north-korean-agriculture-we-need-to-rethink-un-sanctions\\n\\xa0\\nAlso, Hope to see you on Wednesday, August 5, for a joint webinar event with the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy on how we should think about global value chains in the context of COVID-19 and U.S.-China trade war. It will be an important discussion that charts where international trade might be headed in the coming years.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nRSVP here: https://share.hsforms.com/1NSpkIoKAQtyf6qjAi9wzEQ2ztzy"
