US announces more sanctions on North Korean and Russian nationals, companies

Designations appear aimed at curbing military ties between Pyongyang and Moscow, while also blacklisting Chinese firm

The U.S. Department of State has announced new sanctions on North Korean and Russian nationals, a Russian firm and a Chinese company, in an apparent attempt to counter increasing military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang.

The department published a document on Friday detailing the new designations under the Iran, North Korea and Syria Nonproliferation Act (INKSNA), but it has yet to detail the specific grounds for sanctioning the targeted individuals and firms.
