No UN member state imported North Korean coal in April: 1718 Committee

UN website indicates the DPRK's coal exports to all countries at zero

November's UN Resolution 2321 added a cap on what was traditionally the North's most lucrative export, limiting member states from importing more than 7.5 million tonnes or just over $400,000 worth of coal per year.
