UN-Sicherheitsrat verschärft Sanktionen gegen Nordkorea
Der UN-Sicherheitsrat hat einstimmig weitere Sanktionen gegen Nordkorea wegen dessen wiederholter Atom- und Raketentests beschlossen.
► Die UN hat auf Initiative den wirtschaftlichen Druck auf das Regime von Diktator Kim Jong-un nochmals erhöht.
► Lieferungen von Mineralölerzeugnissen wie Benzin, Diesel und Schweröl an das Land werden auf ein Viertel der erlaubten Menge begrenzt.
► Es gilt nun außerdem ein Exportverbot auf Lebensmittel und landwirtschaftliche Produkte, Maschinen, elektrische Geräte, Gesteine und Holz sowie auf Schiffe.
“Pjöngjang hat den Weg der Isolation gewählt”, begründete die US-amerikanische UN-Botschafterin Nikki Haley die Sanktionen. Sie drohte, dass auf neuerliche Provokationen Kims weitere Sanktionen folgen würden.
“Die Abstimmung heute spiegelt den Ernst der Lage”, sagte Frankreichs UN-Botschafter François Delattre. “Wir glauben, dass maximaler Druck heute unser bestes Werkzeug für eine politische Lösung morgen ist.”
Das höchste UN-Gremium hatte erstmals 2006 Sanktionen gegen Nordkorea verhängt und diese zuletzt im September verschärft.
► Wirkung gezeigt hat bisher keine dieser Strafmaßnahmen.
