North Korean seafood on sale despite sanctions

BANNED seafood from North Korea is still being sold in a number of Chinese cities, Japanese media are claiming. This is in spite of a UN Security Council sanctions resolution against Pyongyang in August.

China is supposed to be supporting the resolution, but North Korean shellfish and other seafood prod- ucts have been on open sale in the city of Dandong, which borders the rogue state. North Korean seafood is also on sale in other Chinese towns.
