China to Continue Sanctions on North Korea

According to a U.S. official

The top U.S. envoy on North Korea said China has indicated it will continue to implement U.N. sanctions against North Korea.

Glyn Davies made the remark after meeting in Beijing Wednesday with his Chinese counterpart, Wu Dawei, and other officials. He said China is seeking to convey messages to North Korea so it understands the importance China places on denuclearization.

"I think this is all a work in progress. The Chinese have said to us that they will faithfully implement U.N. Security Council sanctions, and are doing so. And as I've said before, we take them at their word," he said.
