Walking back on the United States’ controversial exit from the U.N. Human Rights Council in 2018, Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for support “fighting against injustice and tyranny” in places like North Korea on Wednesday.

Speaking before the United Nations, Blinken advocated for investigations into North Korean and Syrian human rights abuses, renewing former White House rhetoric that largely disappeared when President Donald Trump leaned into top-level summits with Kim Jong Un in 2018 and 2019.
