Activists join US, NYC officials in effort to name street outside North Korea's UN office after Otto Warmbier

A North Korean defector and human rights activist will address a Manhattan Community Board Six meeting this week to urge the naming of the street in front of the North Korean mission to the UN after Otto Warmbier.

Eric Shawn, a New York-based anchor and senior correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC), joined the network when it launched in 1996. He is currently the co-anchor of FOX News Live. Shawn is also the host of Riddle: The Search for James R. Hoffa on FOX Nation, FNC's on-demand subscription-based streaming service, which is based upon his extensive reporting into the appearance of notorious Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.

"As a mother whose son is imprisoned in a political prison camp by the Kim Jong Un regime, and even do not know his whereabouts, I share a deep pain over the death of Otto Warmbier," says Soyeon Lee, a human rights activist and North Korean defector with the New Korean Women's Union, a group composed of hundreds of North Korean defectors fighting for freedom or the North Korean people.

Lee is the latest supporter of "Otto Warmbier Way," the proposal to name the corner of Second Avenue and 43rd Street in Manhattan in front of the office building that houses the North Korean Mission to the United Nations. The street sign with such a designation, in front of 820 Second Avenue, would be seen as a defiant, moral message to Kim's diplomats and a compelling reminder of the regime's harsh realities to the U.N. community and the world.
