"Saddam Hussein managed to pull off the $100 billion Oil for Food scam right under the noses of the United Nations officials charged with administering it. Now another dictator with nuclear ambitions has succeeded in a similar trick, this time manipulating the United Nations Development Program in North Korea.

American officials have been pushing for months for more transparency in UNDP operations in North Korea, while the UNDP has resisted."
