Exclusive: Sanctions delay North Korea’s nuclear arms work – U.N.
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) – Increasingly tough financial sanctions, an arms embargo and other international restrictions on trade with North Korea have significantly delayed expansion of Pyongyang’s illicit nuclear arms program, according to a confidential report by a U.N. panel of experts seen by Reuters on Tuesday.
“While the imposition of sanctions has not halted the development of nuclear and ballistic missile programs, it has in all likelihood considerably delayed (North Korea’s) timetable and, through the imposition of financial sanctions and the bans on the trade in weapons, has choked off significant funding which would have been channelled into its prohibited activities,” the 52-page report said.
