March 07, 2013 - U.N. Security Council Passes New Sanctions on North Korea The United Nations Security Council approved a new regimen of sanctions on Thursday against North Korea for its underground nuclear test last month in a unanimous vote that came just hours after North Korea threatened for the first time to launch a pre-emptive nuclear strike against the United States and South Korea. Source: NYT (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/08/world/asia/north-korea-warns-of-pre-emptive-nuclear-attack.html?_r=0) The tougher sanctions impose penalties on North Korean banking, travel and trade and were passed in a 15-0 vote that reflected the countrys increased international isolation. China, the Norths longtime benefactor, helped the United States draft the sanctions resolution in what outside experts called a sign of Beijings growing annoyance with Pyongyangs defiant behavior on the nuclear issue. The Chinese had entreated the North Koreans not to proceed with the Feb. 12 underground nuclear test, their third.

Schliesslich wurde die Liste von verbotenen Gtern, welche im Nuklear- und Raketenbereich verwendet werden knnen, sowie die Liste von Luxusgtern, die nicht nach Nordkorea exportiert werden drfen, ergnzt.

Canada
On August 11, 2011, Canada imposed sanctions against North Korea under the Special Economic Measures Act. These sanctions are in addition to existing sanctions passed under the United Nations Act. The Special Economic Measures (DPRK) Regulations came into force to reinforce the message to the North Korean government that its agressive actions, such as the sinking of the Cheonan, are unacceptable. The Regulations provide for the following: ban on all exports; ban on all imports to Canada from North Korea; ban on all new investment in North Korea; ban on the provision of financial services to North Korea and to persons in North Korea; ban on the provision of technical data to North Korea, and ban on the docking and landing in, and transiting of, Canada by North Korean ships and aircraft. Some exceptions are available, including the following: humanitarian efforts and goods, such as food and medical supplies or equipment; stabilization and reconstruction assistance and activities; financial or other support provided by the Government of Canada; and non-commercial remittances. In addition, the Special Economic Measures (DPRK) Permit Authorization Order, made pursuant to subsection 4(4) of the Special Economic Measures Act authorizes the Minister of Foreign Affairs to issue to any person in Canada or any Canadian outside Canada a permit to carry out a specified activity or transaction, or any class of activity or transaction, that is restricted or prohibited pursuant to the Regulations. Canada Sanctions on North Korea - Augustus 11, 2011 (http://www.international.gc.ca/sanctions/korea-coree.aspx?lang=eng&menu_id=15&view=d) On 14 October 2006, acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1718 (2006) imposing sanctions against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) in response to a claim by the DPRK that it conducted a test of a nuclear weapon on October 9, 2006. On June 12, 2009, the Security Council adopted Resolution 1874 (2009) modifying and strengthening the sanctions imposed against the DPRK in 2006. Resolution 1874 (2009) was adopted in response to a nuclear test conducted by the DPRK on May 25, 2009, which violated Resolution 1718 (2006), and missile activities that the Security Council deemed to be a clear threat to international peace and security. The Regulations Implementing the United Nations Resolutions on the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), implement the decisions of the Security Council in Canadian domestic law. Implementation of the travel ban imposed by Resolution 1718 (2006) is ensured in Canada under existing provisions of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. New Developments On July 16, 2009, the 1718 Committee designated five entities; determined additional goods; and designated five individuals to be subject to the measures imposed in paragraph 8 of Resolution 1718. See details in UN Security Council document S/2009/364. Sanctions The measures imposed against the DPRK include: a prohibition on the export to any person in the DPRK of: all arms and related material, with the exception of small arms and light weapons and their related materials; resources contributing to the DPRK's weapons programme; and luxury goods; a prohibition on importing from any person in the DPRK or any citizen of the DPRK of: all arms and related material; and resources contributing to the DPRK's weapons programme; a prohibition on the provision, to any person in the DPRK, of technical assistance related to the provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of arms and related material or resources contributing to the DPRK's weapons programme; a prohibition on financial transactions related to the provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of arms or related material; an assets freeze against persons designated by the Security Council or by the 1718 Committee; and a travel ban against persons designated by the 1718 Committee.

May 08, 2013 - China sanctions North Korea Foreign Trade Bank The Bank of China's decision to shut down the account of North Korea's Foreign Trade Bank and halt all transactions will deal a heavy blow to a reclusive nation that depends on China for a large portion of its trade. Although the May 7 decision was made in response to requests from Washington, officials of Japan, the United States and South Korea still have to determine if the move represents a genuine change in Beijing's policy toward Pyongyang.

New Zealand
Article 41 of the United Nations Charter authorises the Security Council to take enforcement measures not involving the use of force in order to give effect to its decisions. These measures often take the form of sanctions. UN Security Council sanctions are binding on all UN member States, including New Zealand, and are implemented in New Zealand law by regulations made under the United Nations Act 1946. All persons and entities in New Zealand, and in many cases New Zealand citizens and companies overseas, must comply with regulations implementing Security Council sanctions. The range of sanctions imposed by the Security Council has included comprehensive economic and trade sanctions as well as more targeted measures such as arms embargoes, travel bans, and financial restrictions. Financial restrictions, otherwise known as an assets freeze are one of the most commonly used sanctions imposed by the United Nations Security Council.

These designations are pursuant to Executive Order 13382, which targets proliferators of WMD and their supporters: North Korea's nuclear and missile proliferation activities violate UN Security Council Resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), and 2094 (2013), destabilize the region, and undermine the global nonproliferation regime. The international community has condemned North Koreas WMD proliferation activity, most recently in the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 2094 on March 7. Todays designations of three senior members of the North Korean government follow actions taken March 7 by the U.S. Government against China-based representatives of the Korea Mining Development Corporation (KOMID) and Tanchon Commercial Bank (TCB). North Korea will continue to face isolation if it refuses to take concrete steps to comply with its international obligations and address the concerns of the international community over its nuclear and ballistic missile programs. The United States continues to encourage North Korea to choose the path of peace and remains prepared to engage constructively with North Korea if it changes its course. However, North Korea must demonstrate its seriousness of purpose and commitment to authentic and credible negotiations by taking meaningful steps to show it will abide by its denuclearization commitments and respect international law. Pak To-Chun is the head of U.S.- and European Union-designated Munitions Industry Department, which manages North Koreas weapons production and arms exports; he succeeded EU-designated Jon Pyong-Ho. Pak is a full member of the Korean Worker Partys (KWP) Political Bureau, its highest decision-making body, as well the National Defense Commission, which, among other things, oversees several elements of North Koreas security apparatus.

O Kuk-Ryol is a Vice Chairman of the North Korean National Defense Commission. He previously headed the KWP Operations Department, where he ordered the establishment of a nuclear research and development organization directly under his control. The Department of the Treasury is today also designating the Foreign Trade Bank of the DPRK and Paek Se Bong pursuant to E.O. 13382 for WMD proliferation-related activity. More details are available here (http://www.treasury.gov/press-center/press-releases/Pages/default.aspx) The following individuals have been added to OFAC's SDN List: CHU, Kyu-Chang (a.k.a.

OFAC Sanctions (http://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/sanctions/OFAC-Enforcement/Pages/20130311.aspx) & US Department of the Treasury Press Release (http://www.treasury.gov/press-center/press-releases/Pages/jl1876.aspx) March 08, 2013 - United States Sanctions Individuals Linked To North Korean Weapons Of Mass Destruction Programs The United States welcomes the unanimous passage today of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 2094. North Korea's nuclear and missile proliferation activities violate the UN Security Council sanctions regime comprised of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009) and 2087 (2013), destabilize the region, and undermine the global nonproliferation regime. The international community has condemned North Koreas weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation activity and its continued efforts to advance its nuclear and missile programs, including its announced February 12 nuclear test and its April and December 2012 launches using ballistic missile technology. These provocative acts continue to threaten international peace and security and will only result in North Korea becoming further isolated from the international community. On Thursday, March 7, 2013 the U.S. Department of the Treasury implemented the asset freeze provisions of UNSCR 2094 (2013) by designating Mun Chong-Chol, a Tanchon Commercial Bank (TCB) representative who served in Beijing, China; and Yon Chong-Nam and Ko Chol-Chae, both based in Dalian, China, and representatives of Korea Mining Development Corporation (KOMID), pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13382, which targets proliferators of WMD and their supporters. The Second Academy of Natural Sciences and Korea Complex Equipment Import Corporation, listed in UNSCR 2094 today, were previously designated pursuant to E.O. 13382 in August 2010 and October 2005 respectively. "These individuals are important actors within North Koreas proliferation network who have been working to gain access to international markets," said Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence David S. Cohen. "We will continue to work with our partners around the world to expose these operations and hold North Korea accountable for its provocative and destabilizing acts." TCB was identified in the annex of E.O. 13382 in June 2005 because it acts as the financial arm of KOMID, Pyongyangs premier arms dealer and main exporter of goods and equipment related to ballistic missiles and conventional weapons. KOMID was also listed in the annex to E.O. 13382 in June 2005 for its role in North Koreas proliferation of WMD. KOMID has offices in multiple countries around the world and facilitates weapons sales for the North Korean government. TCB plays a role in financing KOMIDs sales of ballistic missiles and has also been involved in ballistic missile transactions from KOMID to Irans Shahid Hemmat Industrial Group (SHIG), the U.S. and UNsanctioned Iranian organization responsible for developing liquid-fueled ballistic missiles. In addition to their listings under E.O. 13382, both TCB and KOMID were designated by the UNSCR 1718 Committee in April 2009. Todays designations under E.O. 13382 generally result in the prohibition of transactions between these individuals and any U.S. person, and the freezing of any assets they may have under U.S. jurisdiction.

These designations, along with several designations announced today by the Department of State, are part of the United States' implementation of the new United Nations Security Council resolution (UNSCR) 2087, which condemned North Korea's launch of December 12, 2012, using ballistic missile technology, in direct violation of UNSCRs 1718 and 1874. Today's actions also support the United States' longstanding objective of impeding North Korea's ability to fund its nuclear and ballistic missile activities. "Our actions today target two North Korean entities, Tanchon Commercial Bank and KOMID, that are part of the web of banks, front companies and government agencies that support North Korea's continued proliferation activities," said Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence David S. Cohen. "By continuing to expose these entities, and the individuals who assist them, we degrade North Korea's ability to use the international financial system for its illicit purposes." Ra Ky'ong-Su, the Tanchon Commerical Bank (TCB) Representative to Beijing and Kim Kwang-Il, the TCB Deputy Representative to Beijing, were designated today for facilitating activity on behalf of TCB. TCB was designated pursuant to E.O. 13382 in October 2009 because it acts as the financial arm of Korea's Mining Development Trading Corporation (KOMID), Pyongyang's premier arms dealer and main exporter of goods and equipment related to ballistic missiles and conventional weapons, which itself was listed in the annex to E.O. 13382 on June 28, 2005 for its role in North Korea's proliferation of WMD. KOMID has offices in multiple countries around the world and aims to facilitate weapons sales. TCB plays a role in financing KOMID's sales of ballistic missiles and has also been involved in ballistic missile transactions from KOMID to Iran's Shahid Hemmat Industrial Group (SHIG), the U.S. and UN-designated Iranian organization responsible for developing liquid-fueled ballistic missiles. In addition to their designation under E.O. 13382, both TCB and KOMID were designated by the UNSCR 1718 Committee in April 2009. Leader (Hong Kong) International Trading Limited was designated today for facilitating the shipment of machinery and equipment to customers on behalf of KOMID and directly to KOMID representatives located outside of North Korea. In addition, Treasury's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) was updated today to reflect that KOMID operates under the alias Korea Kumryong Trading Corporation, an entity designated by the UN Security Council pursuant to UNSCR 2087. Today's actions generally prohibit transactions between the designees and any U.S. person, and freeze any assets designees may have under U.S. jurisdiction.

Once again, the international community has sent a clear, united signal that North Korean provocations that undermine international security and the global nonproliferation regime, like the December 2012 launch, will not be tolerated. To implement our obligations pursuant to UNSCR 2087 and to impede the DPRKs illicit WMD and ballistic missile programs, the Departments of State and the Treasury on January 24, 2013, designated several entities and individuals directly tied to North Koreas proliferation activities. The Department of State designated one entity and two individuals pursuant to Executive Order 13382, which targets proliferators of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their supporters. These include the Korean Committee for Space Technology (KCST), KCST senior official Paek Chang-Ho, and General Manager of the Sohae Satellite Launching Station Chang Myong-Chin. Information on the Department of the Treasurys concurrent actions may be viewed here (http://www.treasury.gov/press-center/press-releases/Pages/default.aspx) The Korean Committee for Space Technology orchestrated the launches of the Taepo-Dong 2 via the satellite control center and Sohae launch area. The technology used to launch a satellite is virtually identical to and interchangeable with that used in an intercontinental ballistic missile. KCST has contributed directly to the DPRKs long-range ballistic missile development efforts. Paek Chang-Ho is a senior official and head of the satellite control center of KCST. Chang Myong-Chin is the head of the launch center at which the launches took place.

June 26, 2011 - Obama Renews Sanctions Targeting North Korea (Friday, June 24, 2011) - U.S. President Obama has renewed for an additional year sanctions targeting North Korea. Former President Bush first ordered the sanctions in 2008 under the National Emergencies Act. The Obama White House has maintained those penalties and even increased them, adding a new prohibition in April on the import of all North Korean products (see below). "The existence and the risk of proliferation of weapon-usable fissile material on the Korean Peninsula, and the actions and policies of the government of North Korea that destabilize the Korean Peninsula and imperil U.S. armed forces, allies, and trading partners in the region, continue to constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy and economy of the United States," Obama said in a notice to Congress explaining his reasons for renewing the sanctions.

The sanctions apply to the specific entities above and will be in effect for two years. The sanctions do not apply to these entities respective countries or governments. The sanctions consist of the following: No department or agency of the U.S. Government may procure, or enter into any contract for the procurement of, any goods, services or technology from these entities; No department or agency of the U.S. Government may provide any assistance to these entities and they shall not be eligible to participate in any assistance program of the U.S. Government;
