The US announced Monday that it intends to strengthen sanctions meant to stifle foreign funding for DPRK’s nuclear weapons program and the lavish lifestyles of its leader and top officials. Emphasis was placed on required cooperation from China, who is accused of “filling in” when sanctions are strengthened against the North. The sanctions, of course, are in place in the wake of conclusive investigation into the sinking of the Cheonan in March by a North Korean torpedo, killing 46 South soldiers.
