Person:notes | Function: former Defence Minister of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-72799 | ||||
Person:notes | Kang Sun Nam is the former Defence Minister of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). In that position, he supervised the development of the DPRK’s unlawful ballistic missile programme and was directly involved in the military cooperation between the DPRK and the Russian Federation, which resulted in the DPRK providing ammunition to Russia in order to pursue its war of aggression against Ukraine. Ballistic missiles designed, developed and produced by the DPRK have been used by the Russian Armed Forces against Ukraine. Kang Sun Nam publicly supported and justified Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. He is thus supporting actions which undermine and threaten the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine. | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-72799 | ||||
