S. Korea raises issue of China's repatriation of N. Korean refugees

South Korean Ambassador Yun Seong-deok urges China to protect North Korean defectors' human rights during a universal periodic review (UPR) at the United Nations Office at Geneva on Jan. 23, 2024, in this photo provided by U.N. Web TV. This marks the first time of Seoul raising a question over China's forced repatriation of North Korean refugees during China's UPR, a mechanism that requires each U.N. member state to undergo a peer review of its human rights record every 4.5 years.
