China, France reaffirm will to implement N. Korea sanctions

  • 5 years ago
China has vowed to continue fully implementing UN Security Council sanctions on North Korea.
This... according to a joint statement signed between China and France... after Chinese President Xi Jinping met this week with his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron in Paris.
China, along with Russia, has been insisting that sanctions need to be eased as the North takes denuclearization steps.
But as permanent members of the Security Council, watchers say the statement shows China and France will go in step with the U.S. in achieving the regime's denuclearization.
