WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 (Yonhap) -- A former U.S. envoy for North Korean human rights issues stressed the need Monday for the United States to ease its longstanding ban on U.S. citizens' travel to North Korea, noting that the prohibition has also prevented Americans from offering humanitarian aid to the reclusive state.
