North Koreas economic boom doubles revenue over four years thanks to war.

North Korea has experienced a surprising economic boom, earning $22 billion in the past four years—four times its previous revenue—largely benefiting from the Russia-Ukraine war.

The Benefits of War

This windfall includes $14 billion from military support to Russia, supplying munitions and troops, and $8 billion from trade with China. While Pyongyang has seen modernization with skyscrapers and advanced technology, this prosperity has not reached average citizens, with millions still living in extreme poverty.
