Syria open to recruiting North Korean labor, foreign minister says

Workers could assist with "construction and redevelopment," Minister Walid al-Moallem says

Syria's foreign minister on Tuesday said that North Korea was willing to help with his country's post-war reconstruction and that DPRK workers could help with the process, in comments that followed his return from a recent trip to Pyongyang.

Minister Walid al-Moallem visited both the DPRK and China last month and signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with North Korea officials on June 25.
