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.
Hope U.S 'restraint' in Asia
US has been dictating everything in this world like a fking dictator yet they only saw others as the dictator.
I mean, lol...the odds that a rogue bomb goes flying at Russia or China is quite higher than N.K landing a shot on the U.S....You'd think other neighbors might voice a larger opinion. Oh wait...U.S is the only ones with the defense to really respond.
Come on for the people of North Korea 🇰🇵 - do it!
They gotta keep N Korea around and create as much instability in other nations as possible so no one is looking at them.
Swoop in under realDonaldTrump perhaps?
What have they done that would justify lifting the sanctions?
The US should keep up the pressure

John Durham's investigation into the FBI Russia probe comes into focusPresident Trump is already cashing in on suggestions that John Durham's investigation into the FBI Russia probe could reveal damning accusations of bias by law enforcement and intelligence officials that last week's inspector general report debunked The little viewers you have left should finally come to the realization that you think they're the dumbest people on the planet for thinking this is true. Durham is leading a criminal investigation - has nothing to do with mere bias. Incredible what the 'law and order' party has come to. On the plus side a democratic president could come in and do some serious reform with these institutions historically weak and held in poor regard by both parties. CNN cant stop lying.
