I'm sure he will want to come back eventually, and when that happens, they should decline to get involved.

Why do you think he will want to come back eventually? A bunch of soldiers have defected to the DPRK since the beginning of the Korean War. Some regret it, some don't, some died. Why are you so sure he will want to come back when he knows that being black in the West will never change in his lifetime?

Because NK is a shithole that goes through periodic famines.
