Sanctions increase “urgency” of South Korean aid to North: MOU

The comments came in the aftermath of Pyongyang's launch of a ballistic missile over Japan, and a day after the unification ministry said that it will decide next week on plans to send over USD$8 million in aid to the North via international organizations.
