Burkina Faso Bans Importation From North Korea by bamzkid: 9:29am On Dec 21, 2017 |
Burkina Faso is banning imports from North Korea to
comply with UN sanctions, the AFP news agency quotes the
government as saying. But an inquiry in October by the US
- which has been pushing for tougher sanctions - found that
Burkina Faso was still trading with North Korea. Burkinabe
Foreign Minister Alpha Barry said:
"Following this inquiry, we conducted a thorough
investigation... and found that there were economic
operators importing from North Korea. Instructions have
been give to the two ministries to end these importations."
Officials figures show the West African country imports
from North Korean, which were mainly petroleum
products, amounted to about $6.8m (£5m) in 2016.
