The Trump administration announced new sanctions against North Korea Tuesday amid heightened tension between Pyongyang and Washington.
According to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, eighth North Korean banks and 26 individuals have been targeted (https://www.treasury.gov/press-center/press-releases/Pages/sm0165.aspx) in an attempt to further isolate the regime of Kim Jong-un.
“We are targeting North Korean banks and financial facilitators acting as representatives for North Korean banks across the globe,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said. “This further advances our strategy to fully isolate North Korea in order to achieve our broader objectives of a peaceful and denuclearized Korean peninsula. This action is also consistent with UN Security Council Resolutions.”
Several of the penalized North Korean individuals are believed to be working from countries such as China, Libya, Russia and the United Arab Emirates.
