The European Union has expanded the list of sanctions against the DPRK

The EU has expanded its sanctions against the DPRK and has entered into the list, according to the decision of the UN Security Council, three merchant ships suspected of transporting petroleum products, according to a decision published on Friday.
"The UN Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1718 (2006) designated three vessels on October 16 to ban entry into ports. The annex to the decision of the EU Council should be amended accordingly," the document says.

All three listed vessels are suspected of transporting oil.

Earlier, the UN Security Council unanimously introduced new sanctions against the DPRK, which significantly limited the export and import capabilities of Pyongyang.
