In Seoul. South Korea. we held a daylong discussion with our counterparts in the National Assembly there in South Korea and took part in a forum of parliamentarians from across the globe. We had parliamentarians there from seven different countries to discuss the plight of North Korean refugees. and this resolution is a product of those discussions and what we learned from the defectors that we talked to. and we listened to the defectors during these hearings. Mr. Speaker. were all too familiar with the miserable human rights conditions in North Korea. and I would just remind the Members of this body of reports by the State Department and NGOs that paint a very grim picture.
