Three More N. Korean Refugees Headed to U.S. from China

We’re about to see another test of that oddly arousing “lips and teeth” analogy.

Two boys in their early teens without family and a man about 18 or 19 years old were taken without incident into the consulate in Shenyang with a member of Liberty in North Korea, according to a spokesman for the grass-roots group who asked not to be identified for security reasons. The group, also known as LiNK, operates orphanages in China that provide for North Koreans living clandestinely there.

The question now is whether China will risk upsetting a longtime ally by allowing the teens to go to the U.S.

A “State Department official” says that the United States intends to accept and resettle them.  To join or support LiNK, click.  Thanks to a reader for the tip.
