China, Russia propose lifting some U.N. sanctions on North Korea, U.S. says not the time
UNITED NATIONS - China and Russia on Monday proposed that the U.N. Security Council lift a ban on North Korea exporting statues, seafood and textiles, according to a draft resolution seen by Reuters.
It was not immediately clear when or if the draft resolution could be put to a vote in the 15-member Security Council. A resolution needs nine votes in favor and no vetoes by the United States, France, Britain, Russia or China to pass. Concerns were growing internationally that North Korea could resume nuclear or long-range missile testing - suspended since 2017 - because denuclearization talks between Pyongyang and Washington have stalled.
Russia and China have long said the Security Council should reward Pyongyang after Kim pledged in 2018 to work toward denuclearization.
