North Korea denounced the latest united nations sanctions imposed on the isolated state, saying they infringed on its sovereignty, according to the North’s Official News Agency on Monday.
The U.N. Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea on Saturday aimed at pressuring Pyongyang to end its nuclear programme.
The U.S.-drafted resolution bans North Korean exports of coal, iron, iron ore, lead, lead ore and seafood following Pyongyang’s two intercontinental ballistic missile tests in July.
