So Chung-on, director of the International Affairs Bureau of The General Association of Korean Residents of Japan. Choe Kwan-il, managing editor of the Pyongyang-supported Choson Sinbo newspaper in Tokyo, also said that he thought Scotland should vote to leave the UK.

He said: “I believe independence will be positive as it will encourage personal exchanges and provide both countries with business chances.

“North Korea is rich in natural resources and we like the taste of Scotch whisky, so we can be beneficial to each other.”
