N Korea calls on US to lift financial sanctions | ||
2007-03-11 | ||
SEOUL - North Korea has said it will take ‘corresponding action’ if the United States does not lift its financial sanctions on the country following the recent agreement on ending the international dispute over Pyongyang’s nuclear programme. North Korea ‘cannot but take corresponding actions if the US does not fully lift the sanctions,’ news agency Yonhap quoted North Korean Deputy Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan as saying in Beijing on Saturday. Kim reiterated Pyongyang’s insistence that Washington lift all sanctions againt the Banco Delta Asia bank in Macau, where numerous North Korean accounts have been frozen since September 2005 after the US alleged they were being used for the proceeds of North Korean counterfeiting and money laundering.

#7 I dunno, #6 RD - I'd think Pelosi would be awfully stringy. Of course, even stringy would probably be better than grass soup.... |

#6 Alaska Paul would suggest that the NORKS hold Secret Talks™ with the Dems in Congress. They just MIGHT move it along as a rider in some pork bill. Nobody reads the verbage in these things anyway, so they just might slip it through. Better yet, find some staffer with Pelosi, or Murtha. Hey, my humanitarian suggestion. AP how bout a work around.. On humanitarian grounds we could feed both Pelosi AND Murtha to the North Koreans. a sure two fer, hunger abatement for the Norks and sweet permanent relief for us. |

#1 Why not invite them to do business with Bank of America, where they will promise to beat whatever benefits they are getting from Banco Delta Asia Bank by 0.5%? Wouldn't that make any country happy? /sarc_off |
