China to investigate suspected violation of UN sanctions on North Korea
[DAWN] China says it is "highly concerned" about a reported ship-to-ship transfer on the high seas that could violate the sanctions imposed on  North Korea by the United Nations...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... (UN). Foreign ministry front man Geng Shuang said on Thursday that Beijing is investigating the incident reported by Japan earlier this week. Geng said China would "seriously deal" with any Chinese individuals or enterprises found to be involved. Photos of the transfer released by Japan show a North Korean-flagged tanker alongside a smaller ship that appears to be Chinese, with what appear to be hoses running between them. Japan has reported three such incidents in the past month. Posted by: Fred 2018-02-23 |
