Chinese oil product exports to North Korea dwindle in April: UN

Figures are roughly a fifth of their March equivalents

China only exported a few hundred tons of oil products to North Korea in April, a major reduction compared to the previous month, according to figures provided to the UN's 1718 Committee.

UN Resolution 2397, passed at the end of last year, limited how much crude and refined oil member states can ship to the DPRK, while also adding export reporting requirements.
