North Korea gloats over Western crisis
The world’s most closed and secretive country, which officially ditched communism in favour of a military-first ideology in 2009, ran a story yesterday under the headline “Capitalism has no future” on its state-run news agency KCNA.
“The only way out of the present crisis facing the capitalist world is to root out its system. Capitalism is fading away from history as it exploits people and is forsaken by them.”

KCNA has run a series of stories on the financial crisis which has gripped much of the world in recent months.
North Korea relies on outside aid to feed many of its people.
