Major U.S. allies in Asia welcome new U.N. Security Council sanctions on North Korea


(Worthy News) – Major U.S. allies in Asia welcomed on Tuesday the U.N. Security Council’s unanimous vote to step up sanctions on North Korea, with its profitable textile exports now banned and fuel supplies to the reclusive North capped after its sixth nuclear test.
