The far-right French comedian Dieudonné M’Bala M’Bala and writer Alain Soral have been invited to North Korea to hold a show on September 9, the tour guide responsible for the trip has told NK News.

Both hold criminal convictions in France. Dieudonné, who is commonly known by his first name in France, has been tried in court on over 10 different occasions for separate incidents linked to hate speech, defamation, racism, anti-semitism, Holocaust denial, and inciting racial and religious hatred.
