No. They do not have enough arable land to support themselves, so routinely rely on aid. Poor economic management, flooding and corruption are the major causes of the famines
You are both right. There is a lack of food because of floods, etc., but an enormous amount of money that could go towards buying food, improving farm efficiency, etc. goes towards Kim Jong's obsession with missiles; which I guess could go under "poor economic management". @@yearzeroism
That's not how it works. North Korea cannot produce more food(they already produce more food than South Korea). North Korea has to trade for food, but not only does North Korea not have anything to trade, it's also heavily sanctioned so it isn't allowed to trade.

@@Justin-jk1tg the UN and food charities gave the citizens food , he kept it to himself that’s what feeding him , and his father did the same thing, the person that breeds giant meat rabbits was generous enough to give him some rabbits to breed for meat and him and his men had a feast the same day with 3 whole rabbits that were supposed to be bred , and that’s the reason the man gave him a couple bc he knew the game , the leader will steal food that’s meant for the people
A rabbit farmer from Germany sent North Korea 12 giant rabbits (4 males and 8 females) at the request of NK to help raise them as a viable food source for the population. What happened to them? Glorious Leader had his chefs serve them all up at a banquet.
If only the North Korean civilians weren't as brainwashed as they are, they really should storm Kim Jong un's palace and take that fat pig of a dictator and eat him instead
It’s no secret that there are years of rumors of North Koreas population being starved from basic food necessities and at first you think it’s just toxic media but when you hear the same thing decades after decade you know it has to mean soemthing
Not just that. North Koreans as a whole, on average, are shorter/thinner than South Koreans. There are still shared genetics between the two countries so genetics aren't the problem/root cause. Malnourishment DOES stunt growth, and obviously someone who is starving isn't going to look like an average American weight-wise.
Generations of children being nutritionally deprived. A small portion of the population are having their needs met... They are N Korea's one presenters. Think about that! Why should we care?
Years ago, I learned how people in Finland survived during a famine by making flour out of the cambium layer of tree bark. That's what starving people in North Korea do during a famine, they eat trees and grass to survive. Very sad.
A bunch of Countries were sending food/supplies/fuel, etc... to DPRK, he never paid for any of it. This was done for months until they were told point blank NOT to send anything more to the DPRK as NONE of it was going to the people. Kim took it all for himself. The only Country giving to them is China
@@tristanclarkhawes976 there isnt even much for "Strings", typically even when sending aid to dictatorships those sending the aid usually just want some assurances that the aid is going to the citizens and isnt being pocketed by the regime. North Korea does that quiet often either selling the aid to pocket a profit or giving the "aid" out as payment in return for working for the regime, essentially using the food in lieu of a "pay check". That's one reason why not much aid has gone to Afghanistan recently; the Taliban have been withholding it and giving food to government employees or selling it instead of distributing the food to the citizens. That's one major reason why Live Aid was a bit of a disaster: they sent tons of aid but the regime pocketed almost all of it because there werent any strings attached or much monitoring.
with reports of a dire situation for the country's population. It's frustrating that we have limited access to information from North Korea, so it's difficult to know the true extent of the crisis. However, the comparison to the famine in the 1990s, known as the arduous March, is worrying. The crisis in the 1990s triggered a large outflow of North Koreans desperate to escape poverty, hunger, and devastation, with an estimated 3 million North Koreans dying from starvation or related illnesses. It's also concerning that Pyongyang has been ramping up its nuclear weapons program in recent years, with an unprecedented number of ballistic and other missile tests recorded in the nation's history. The high level of spending on defense is also alarming, with the country spending about one-fourth of its estimated GDP on defense in 2019. Economic sanctions have been implemented, but these have had unintended consequences for the country's population, with those at the lowest levels of the pyramid suffering the most. Overall, it's a worrying situation and I hope that aid can reach those who need it most.
based amerimutts seething, ironic, they invaded iraq due to weapons of mass destruction, they don't invade north korea because they actually have weapons of mass destruction
People in North Korea are like the panda Ya Ya in Memphis Zoo: The zoo says everything is fine, people outside say everything is bad. The big difference is that Ya Ya was allowed to leave. The people of North Korea are not so lucky.
As was mentioned in the video: other countries deal with food shortages in a rational manner virtually making starvation a past sad memory. How a great leader like this clown can watch millions go thru such horrific deaths. Starvation is not a painless death. The suffering from no food intake is something that can't be ignored, distracted from. It's constantly there, pounding in the mind, internal organs and muscles all screaming in their own way for nutrition, essential molecules before cellular death occurs. Only a monster of tremendous uncaring could orchestrate famine in this manner.
And it's bad that NK doesn't have much in the way of communication so it's too hard for the people to coordinate a mass rebellion, at this point only an internal rebellion and the toppling of the Kim regime would save the North Korean people. The entire ruling family needs to go. Too bad the civilians are too brainwashed by the regime, otherwise I'd bet they would've stormed Kim's palace long ago and tore him apart for food.
The "monster of tremendous uncaring" is the United States which bullied the United Nations into imposing the most severe sanctions regime a country has ever endured just because it is seen as a threat to an ally. Not only have food imports been severely curtailed due to the collapse in exports since 2017, but the import of oil based products has been limited leading to shortages of the inputs for producing fertilisers, pesticides and plastic sheeting.
Democracy is why South Korea economic boom started and continues today. Freedoms, cracking down on corruption, economic liberalization. South Korea went from dictatorship to democracy, North Korea just kept getting worse, more and more repressive. South Korea GDP is about 100x of North Korea now.
Because the owner of the money printing machine is SK's ally. Very easy to be prosperous when you just print money and others are giving their resources for your printed paper. Let's see how rich SK will be when US dollar loses its global role and this alliance no longer beneficial to SK.

Economic liberalization is just one part of the equation.
@@b21raider27 USSR was dirt poor, it was only 25% of global economy in best years. China became prosperous because the US and China had a honeymoon period After collapse of the USSR.

How liberal are Saudi Arabia and UAE? Why these regimes are so wealthy and for example Iraq, Libya, Venezuela are not?
There are stories that some poor N.Korean became a cannibal because the food shortages was very severe. When winter came, they didn't have enough foods and only ate once for every 3 days.

Is this North Korean food crisis even real 🤔? I haven’t heard any complaints coming from the North Koreans. L’il rocketman and his chubby kid seem to be eating well 🐷🇰🇵
Fun Fact: The DPRK was the leading economy of the 2 countries up until before the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1988. In ‘94 the collectively west voted with the UN to put the heaviest sanctions any country has seen on the DPRK, these sanctions included even the export of grains to the true Korea which caused the massive famine of the DPRK. The west purposely did this to starve their country. Despite all this the Kim’s have made the DPRK into a glorious socialist paradise. Glory to the true Korea.
Real, but not as prevalent as Reuter suggested, and the majority of the food crisis was caused by severe US sanctions, not by the North Korean government. I got this information from a South Korean organization that works together with North Korea in times of food crisis.
The leader is spending money on needless stuff , like missiles . He needs to spend more on what really matters , like fixing the country and its problems . It's all about what he wants , not what's needed . 😢
Kim spends all his time on housing, education, food and healthcare for the people. That is the socialist agenda of the DPRK. He can only do so much with his resources because the DPRK is the heaviest sanctioned country in the world along with Russia.
And once again why would they? The DPRK is the true Korea. The Kim’s liberated Korea from Japanese occupation. And it was the leading economy until 1988. As China emerges as the world power and the BRICS taking over the US dollar that will only means the DPRK will return to its former glory
Fake western news. The Kim’s build housing and greenhouses all the time. Just finished construction of the peoples hospital in pyongyang, Kim just inaugurated 10k new flats in the hwasong district and brand new housing in the country. All free for the people of the DPRK 🇰🇵
Here are some headlines for you. North Koreas Kim touts new large greenhouse farm built on ex missile test site - Reuters North Korea opens largest greenhouse farm in country to address food shortages - NK News North Korea’s Kim touts large greenhouse farm built on ex-missile test site - NBC News 3, 2, 1… Agriculture! North Korean leader opens new greenhouse farm - TVP World Food Shortage in North Korea? Greenhouse Vegetables to the Rescue - Greenhouse Grower
Depressing thing is the regime would have collapsed multiple times by now but they're propped up by China simply because the PRC is worried that if the Kims get deposed the country may reunite with South Korea and that would result in a US ally on their border, and the PRC sacrificed hundreds of thousands of their own people in the Korean war to prevent that so sacrificing North Korean civilians is a small price to pay in their eyes.
North Korea has closed its country too much from the outside world and does not want to follow the example of China, which had already opened up since 1978 when Deng Xiaoping was in charge.
I'd love to do something, unfortunately I'm powerless to do so. If I could I would teleport into Kim's palace at night, kidnap him and take him back to the West and put him into the most disgusting and dirtiest prison cell in the US I can find and leave him there. Then I'd tell the other inmates he's a p*dophile (because many inmates really hate those) so they would beat him up
I wold be happy to donate some food to the people of North Korea if I could. I don't have much but could give some and if others chipped in we might be able to help them eat.

Mr Kim should face ICC for the crime of inhumanity towards North Koreans, yet he wastes resources in making nukes and missiles and leaves the people in starvation.
@@josephwu3136 I love steak, how often do North Koreans eat steak. Or are they like the Chinese during the food shortages in the sixties and seventies, a bag of rice and two kilos of pork Fat a month. How about rice just with soya sauce washed down with the lies the government told the hungry about millions dying from starvation in the west.
I hope the North Korean civilians revolt and take the fat pig to the guillotine for that. If the French Royals were executed for insinuating that the population should eat cake that fat pig should definitely suffer the guillotine for this.
North Korea is mountainous country, it doesn’t have large agricultural lands. With sanctions from US, of course it constantly run into food shortage issues. If the democratic republic of Mongol was sanctioned in similar way, Mongol will run into food shortage issue too. China should aid North Korea in terms of food supply for humanitarian reasons.
Nuclear weapon program is VERY expensive. That's why only the big and rich countries with stable economies can afford to maintain one let alone having a huge stockpile. Sure big brother China is always there to support but even if N. Korean people are not literally dying of starvation they surely are starving of knowledge and exposure that the rest of the world has to offer.
North Korea is under UN sanction that they can barely trade with any other country. That's why it is suffering from poverty. Before the sanction, NK was actually developing at a decent pace. But that's what they chose as the sanction was a result of the nuclear weapon that they were developing. And Russia was the one who gave them the nuclear technology.
It's not the nuclear technology that's at fault, it's the foreign countries. You're forgetting: The countries that sanctioned them already have functional nukes.
Longtao, you have cause and effect completely backwards. If Kim Jung Un would stop threatening South Korea, Japan, and the U.S., and spending 25% of his country's GDP on missles, his people would have plenty to eat, and other countries would be happy to trade with him.
That ignores all the reasons why South Korea's economy surpassed North Korea's in the 1960's. North Korea received plenty of aid from the USSR and China during the Cold War. Unfortunately for the North Korean people, military investment had a far higher priority than economic investment. Similarly, Park Chung-hee opened up South Korea to foreign direct investment in the 1960's. Even China started accepting FDI in the 1980's with the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. North Korea didn't accept foreign investment until 2002 with the Rasun Free Trade Zone. Too little, too late.
7:22 just a small issue, Yugoslav countries weren’t a part of the eastern block but were neutral and didn’t send any aid to North Korea, also idk why Croatia is put in black
I don’t understand why all the nations don’t come together and do something about this?! The leader and his daughter are the only ones over weight in that whole entire country?! This is so mind blowing that this is happening right now as we speak! Geez! 😢
There's a few reasons why: 1. North Korea much like Maoist China, Stalinist USSR, and Leninist Russia, denies the famine is really happening so as to not look weak. 2. Related to #1 they deny foreign aid for famine relief (but will accept it if it's in return for not launching nukes since that makes them look strong). 3. They dont want foreigners in their country 4. Often foreign aid comes with some minor strings attached, typically proof that the aid isnt just going straight to the regime. North Korea and other dictatorships often either take the free aid and use it in place of payment to get their citizens to work for the regime or they sell the aid which is supposed to be free to the citizens. The Kims have done that before since they're extremely greedy and power hungry, and their underlings do the same. In spite of North Korean militarism and threats foreign countries have time and time again offered and even sent aid to the country. North Korea constantly complains about the US and outright insults the country, both the US government and it's citizens specifically, and even in spite of that the US has sent tons in aid over the years. Just between 1995 and 2007 the US government sent over $1bil in food aid alone with more being sent since from the US government and more yet coming from private US charities and through programs like UNICEF which has been primarily US funded. This isnt a case of the world ignoring a tragedy, it's a case of a Chinese puppet state rebuking foreign aid so they can maintain control over the country.

You may blame UN that their sanctions are causing economical damage that results in more people suffering but it is their stubborn maniac rulers who don't spend money on truly needed things who are responsible. And looking even deeper those people who die from starvation today are dying due to failings of their past past generations back to 1948 who let those maniacs to come to power.

It’s no secret that there are years of rumors of North Koreas population being starved from basic food necessities and at first you think it’s just toxic media but when you hear the same thing decades after decade you know it has to mean soemthing
Not just that. North Koreans as a whole, on average, are shorter/thinner than South Koreans. There are still shared genetics between the two countries so genetics aren't the problem/root cause. Malnourishment DOES stunt growth, and obviously someone who is starving isn't going to look like an average American weight-wise.

Years ago, I learned how people in Finland survived during a famine by making flour out of the cambium layer of tree bark.
That's what starving people in North Korea do during a famine, they eat trees and grass to survive. Very sad.
An example of the danger of pride. The DPRK could accept food aid from abroad, but simply refuses to do so for the most part.
Cuz they don’t want people to see how bad it really is but we all know just not to the fullest extent let alone anyone from the outside world
A bunch of Countries were sending food/supplies/fuel, etc... to DPRK, he never paid for any of it. This was done for months until they were told point blank NOT to send anything more to the DPRK as NONE of it was going to the people. Kim took it all for himself.
The only Country giving to them is China
They do not want food aid with strings attached.
@Sasen91 it’s a form of self reliance they want to do everything themselves
@@tristanclarkhawes976 there isnt even much for "Strings", typically even when sending aid to dictatorships those sending the aid usually just want some assurances that the aid is going to the citizens and isnt being pocketed by the regime. North Korea does that quiet often either selling the aid to pocket a profit or giving the "aid" out as payment in return for working for the regime, essentially using the food in lieu of a "pay check". That's one reason why not much aid has gone to Afghanistan recently; the Taliban have been withholding it and giving food to government employees or selling it instead of distributing the food to the citizens. That's one major reason why Live Aid was a bit of a disaster: they sent tons of aid but the regime pocketed almost all of it because there werent any strings attached or much monitoring.

“How hungry are people in North Korea?”
*”Unfortunately if i say, I will die.”*
with reports of a dire situation for the country's population. It's frustrating that we have limited access to information from North Korea, so it's difficult to know the true extent of the crisis. However, the comparison to the famine in the 1990s, known as the arduous March, is worrying. The crisis in the 1990s triggered a large outflow of North Koreans desperate to escape poverty, hunger, and devastation, with an estimated 3 million North Koreans dying from starvation or related illnesses.
It's also concerning that Pyongyang has been ramping up its nuclear weapons program in recent years, with an unprecedented number of ballistic and other missile tests recorded in the nation's history. The high level of spending on defense is also alarming, with the country spending about one-fourth of its estimated GDP on defense in 2019. Economic sanctions have been implemented, but these have had unintended consequences for the country's population, with those at the lowest levels of the pyramid suffering the most. Overall, it's a worrying situation and I hope that aid can reach those who need it most.
If they didn't have nukes the U.S. would have implemented another puppet regime in the DPRK's place.

Sad they are starving and the ruler of north Korea is living the life of wealth and could care less of his people
Saying North Korea has a food crisis is like saying the Great Famine in Ireland was due to the failure of the potato crop.
People in North Korea are like the panda Ya Ya in Memphis Zoo: The zoo says everything is fine, people outside say everything is bad. The big difference is that Ya Ya was allowed to leave. The people of North Korea are not so lucky.
As was mentioned in the video: other countries deal with food shortages in a rational manner virtually making starvation a past sad memory. How a great leader like this clown can watch millions go thru such horrific deaths. Starvation is not a painless death. The suffering from no food intake is something that can't be ignored, distracted from. It's constantly there, pounding in the mind, internal organs and muscles all screaming in their own way for nutrition, essential molecules before cellular death occurs. Only a monster of tremendous uncaring could orchestrate famine in this manner.
"past sad memory" is not quite accurate. There are still people "virtually" starving.
And it's bad that NK doesn't have much in the way of communication so it's too hard for the people to coordinate a mass rebellion, at this point only an internal rebellion and the toppling of the Kim regime would save the North Korean people. The entire ruling family needs to go.
Too bad the civilians are too brainwashed by the regime, otherwise I'd bet they would've stormed Kim's palace long ago and tore him apart for food.
The "monster of tremendous uncaring" is the United States which bullied the United Nations into imposing the most severe sanctions regime a country has ever endured just because it is seen as a threat to an ally. Not only have food imports been severely curtailed due to the collapse in exports since 2017, but the import of oil based products has been limited leading to shortages of the inputs for producing fertilisers, pesticides and plastic sheeting.
It's really funny since in RoK you can see elderly that can barely walk being forced to work because otherwise they would also starve....

I'm not sure if this is satire or actual thought.
Fun Fact: The DPRK was the leading economy of the 2 countries up until before the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1988. In ‘94 the collectively west voted with the UN to put the heaviest sanctions any country has seen on the DPRK, these sanctions included even the export of grains to the true Korea which caused the massive famine of the DPRK. The west purposely did this to starve their country. Despite all this the Kim’s have made the DPRK into a glorious socialist paradise. Glory to the true Korea.
You don’t hear because they don’t let anyone see 😂
@@republicofkoreaball4349 isnt it obvious from the "lil' rocketman"?

Depressing thing is the regime would have collapsed multiple times by now but they're propped up by China simply because the PRC is worried that if the Kims get deposed the country may reunite with South Korea and that would result in a US ally on their border, and the PRC sacrificed hundreds of thousands of their own people in the Korean war to prevent that so sacrificing North Korean civilians is a small price to pay in their eyes.

7:22 Something is wrong with the map why is Croatia on the map blue
North Korea is under UN sanction that they can barely trade with any other country. That's why it is suffering from poverty. Before the sanction, NK was actually developing at a decent pace. But that's what they chose as the sanction was a result of the nuclear weapon that they were developing. And Russia was the one who gave them the nuclear technology.
It's not the nuclear technology that's at fault, it's the foreign countries. You're forgetting: The countries that sanctioned them already have functional nukes.
Longtao, you have cause and effect completely backwards.
If Kim Jung Un would stop threatening South Korea, Japan, and the U.S., and spending 25% of his country's GDP on missles, his people would have plenty to eat, and other countries would be happy to trade with him.
That ignores all the reasons why South Korea's economy surpassed North Korea's in the 1960's. North Korea received plenty of aid from the USSR and China during the Cold War. Unfortunately for the North Korean people, military investment had a far higher priority than economic investment.
Similarly, Park Chung-hee opened up South Korea to foreign direct investment in the 1960's. Even China started accepting FDI in the 1980's with the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. North Korea didn't accept foreign investment until 2002 with the Rasun Free Trade Zone. Too little, too late.
7:22 just a small issue, Yugoslav countries weren’t a part of the eastern block but were neutral and didn’t send any aid to North Korea, also idk why Croatia is put in black

@@ebbygal1111 that's how kim control his people. Only him has the key to food sources not other countries. Obey or die..says the fatso
There's a few reasons why:
1. North Korea much like Maoist China, Stalinist USSR, and Leninist Russia, denies the famine is really happening so as to not look weak.
2. Related to #1 they deny foreign aid for famine relief (but will accept it if it's in return for not launching nukes since that makes them look strong).
3. They dont want foreigners in their country
4. Often foreign aid comes with some minor strings attached, typically proof that the aid isnt just going straight to the regime. North Korea and other dictatorships often either take the free aid and use it in place of payment to get their citizens to work for the regime or they sell the aid which is supposed to be free to the citizens. The Kims have done that before since they're extremely greedy and power hungry, and their underlings do the same.
In spite of North Korean militarism and threats foreign countries have time and time again offered and even sent aid to the country. North Korea constantly complains about the US and outright insults the country, both the US government and it's citizens specifically, and even in spite of that the US has sent tons in aid over the years. Just between 1995 and 2007 the US government sent over $1bil in food aid alone with more being sent since from the US government and more yet coming from private US charities and through programs like UNICEF which has been primarily US funded. This isnt a case of the world ignoring a tragedy, it's a case of a Chinese puppet state rebuking foreign aid so they can maintain control over the country.
