Permalink Doctor says NKorea medics trained in US to treat Kim

North Korean doctors treating then-leader Kim Jong-Il following his stroke in 2008 were sent to the United States for training, a South Korean doctor said Thursday. - Pyongyang's ambassador to the United Nations had asked the MD Anderson Cancer Center -- based in Houston and part of the University of Texas -- to train three North Korean doctors, Lee Byung-Hoon told AFP. "The chief of the centre contacted the US government after being asked to secretly meet the North's ambassador, and got approval to accept them as exchange scholars," said Lee, an adviser to the Korean Medical Association. He cited unidentified medics at the US centre for his information. The communist North habitually lambasts the United States as "warmongers" and the "imperialist enemy."
