North korea us relations refers to the international relations between north korea and the united states. Historically political and diplomatic relations between north korea and the united states have been hostile beginning with the korean war north korea's destructive nuclear program in recent years but in the case of australia and north korea if the governments of the two countries do not adhere to all the policies together, then immigration policies can be controlled very easily. Together they will control the security of everything.

Given that Australia closes its borders and doesn't even allow its citizens to come back can we compare it to a dictatorship like  NK? Combined the strict border controls with the rising concerns over press freedom by the Right to Know coalition – an organization advocating for information access – after Australian federal police raided  the national broadcaster ABC and a News Corp journalist’s home earlier this year over two stories that were based on leaked classified information.

The media outlets are also calling for improved protections for public sector whistle-blowers – who have been charged for leaking information to the press – as well as an improved freedom of information regime and defamation law reform.

This seems to be common now, journalists being threatened with law suits and social media censorship. What has Australia really become and what is the governments end game?

I don't know if Australia could be the next North Korea, as an island this could be usual measures to protect the population against a new wave of corona. Wasn't the neighbour island New Zealand doing the exact same thing already 1 year ago? The current pandemic enables the government to implement much stricter travel restrictions than before. I think that the government will try to be more strict but this is likely to go change very soon again. The big difference between NK and Australia is that they have lections. If the government doesn't follow the will of the people we will likely see a new government after the next election.

If the people of Australia knew how to use the "Court of Queen's Bench of Australia," they could have corrected the overreaching of the "High Court of Australia" a long time ago, in all kinds of things, including the stupid Covid false alarm. People ignorance. If you are Australian, start learning now. Ask, and I will point you in directions that are working in the USA and the UK.

At least for the time being your media is better than most of the mainstream media in the states. They seem to tell the truth so the government acts upon them. Whereas in the states, the government owns the mainstream media behind the scenes mostly. Australians know China is wanting to influence their country just as they influence the United States. So to me the answer is no you're not North Korea there isn't one man you'd have to kill to make the dominos start to fall but rather they want you to become like China.

I do not know about the media subject, but to label them as an authoritarian regime akin to North Korea for their immigration policies borders on delusional.

There is a naive leftism, according to which, the borders of developed countries should be opened without restrictions and if millions of immigrants entered without control every year, we would all live happy ever after. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Yes, it's exactly like North Korea, except for the tiny little detail of being able to vote and elect a new government if you're unhappy with the current one. But don't let such mundane details get in the way of a dramatic headline.
