TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan mentioned on Friday it was freezing the assets of 4 Russian organisations, three Russian people and 6 North Korean people for involvement in North Korea’s weapons projects, in response to an announcement from the international ministry.
North Korea late final month examined an enormous new intercontinental missile, prompting the United States to push for “updating” and strengthening United Nations sanctions on North Korea.
