Blame it on North Korea...

     This week North Korea is at it again! Or are they? This blogpost is going to be about an article in BBC.com that has to do with North Korea, Mexico, and the UN. Apparently, North Korea has accused Mexico of illegally holding a North Korean ship that ran aground on a reed last year in Mexico. North Korea is saying that the holding of Mu Du Bong, the NK ship, was a "legitimate violation" of sovereignty" because it was an actual commercial ship and they have paid the damages to the reef. But here is the catch, the UN is stating that Mu Du Bong is a ship linked to North Korea's Ocean Maritime Management, which is blacklisted in the UN. North Korea's Ocean Maritime Management ships are blacklisted because in 2013 a ship was seized in Panama for having Soviet-era weapons and fighter jets hidden under sugar sacks. Since then the UN has banned most arms shipments to North Korea. Mu Du Bong is being accused by the UN  of having "overwhelming" evidence that shows the ship is linked to Korea's Ocean Maritime Management. So far the "evidence" has not been proven. What do you think? Do you think North Korea is sneaky enough to have sent a ship with arms?
