A spokesman for the External Construction Guidance Bureau in a statement Saturday branded it as part of moves for building public opinion and securing justifications at the instructions of the U.S. and other hostile forces keen to railroad another anti-DPRK "human rights resolution" through the 70th UN General Assembly.

As for the "special rapporteur," he has a record of having been censured by many countries for not making an apology for his open propaganda that agitated the regime change in a sovereign state while going under the name of UN.

The statement went on:

In the past he had shielded "defectors from the north" and other riff-raffs with no clear identities in the UN arena only to be snubbed as the falsity of information presented by them as regards "human rights" in the DPRK was brought to light. This time he came out with the "human rights situation" of the DPRK workers working overseas in a bid to prolong his remaining days as a cat's-paw of the hostile forces as he faced the dwindling in his living expenses.

DPRK workers who are working abroad on the principle of voluntary job under legitimate contracts with relevant countries do labor under working and living conditions consistent with international law and domestic laws. They contribute to the economic development and the expansion of economic relations and exchange with other countries.

It has now become a common thing to exchange labor as well as funds and technology in economic relations among countries and no one can take issue with this.

It is the behavior of the mentally deranged to describe normal economic exchange as "human rights abuse" and peddle it in the international arena.

The "special rapporteur" went vocal about "forced labor" without a clear ground, a senseless logic of branding the employment of labor overseas as "forced labor".

The UN should no longer remain an on-looker to the reckless behavior of the "special rapporteur" fostering sinister acts by abusing the name of the UN but immediately dismiss him from his post as urged by many countries.
