The European Commission is going to impose sanctions against ships allegedly transporting military cargo from the DPRK to Russia

In the near future, the European Commission may come up with a proposal to impose sanctions against ships that allegedly transport North Korean military equipment to Russia. This was reported by the Reuters news agency, citing its own sources.

According to the news agency, the European Commission is considering the issue of introducing sanctions against such ships in order to prevent the transport of military cargo from the DPRK to Russia. Stories about deliveries weapons and ammunition from North Korea is a “favorite topic” for Western media.



The West accuses North Korea of ​​allegedly transferring weapons and ammunition to Russia, which are then used in a special military operation. At the same time, it is not very clear what Pyongyang should restrain from such actions, even if they actually took place. The West is openly hostile to the DPRK. Russia and North Korea have long-standing ties. In addition, for some reason the Western countries themselves are not shy about transferring huge quantities of weapons and ammunition to the Ukrainian side.

As for sanctions, for more than two years they have shown their ineffectiveness. The same will happen with the next EU sanctions package. Russia was able to increase production volumes at its military-industrial enterprises, inflicting defeat after defeat on Ukrainian formations at the front, and sanctions restrictions did not lead to a significant deterioration in life in our country. That is why many experts talk about the failure of the policy of sanctions, which turned out to be practically useless in terms of weakening Russia.

      Usually, these sea vessels are taken and added to the “black list”, but they will not be able to interfere, besides, there is also a railway connection with North Korea.

    This means that North Korea is still supplying us with something. Why by sea? There is a railway along which Chairman Kim Jong-un recently arrived.

      Related to logistics. The port of Rajin is equipped with warehouses, cargo storage areas and port cranes. There are even Russian Russian Railways personnel, they own warehouses and a pier in Rajin. There was a project to transship Kuzbass coal to South Korea that failed.
      The railway section between the DPRK and the Russian Federation has been modernized, but previously it was single-track, but as it is now, it’s bad. According to satellite images, last fall the construction of a warehouse and cargo storage area had just begun at the railway station in the DPRK; there were no loading cranes. The railway gauge in the DPRK and Russia is different.

        Those. in the port itself, only warehouse facilities are used for loading onto the Russian gauge railway, and shipping by sea is not necessary.

          Well, I don't know for sure. Actually, Russian Railways planned to transship several million tons through Rajin. coking coal per year and transporting a couple of thousand containers per month should not have been a problem. A 54 km long section of the railway was modernized and, in principle, it would be possible to load and unload trains in Rajin without using the border railway station.

    What is much more interesting here is how these sanctions will be implemented. Are they going to seize ships and seize cargo? How will we respond?
    We should write right away that the cargo will be confiscated and transferred to Ukraine.

      Yes, that’s right, I spent six months under arrest in France at the beginning of my own. But our company was and remains under sanctions...we only go to friendly countries now, so I don’t understand what else they can introduce. And yes... we don't seem to be answering anything.

        Thank you, Sailor!
        (only Nick gives the phone number)
        As I understand it, if we go from Chongjin to Nakhodka, they will intercept almost in our sight?
        So we can consider them pirates and sink them with the proper weapons.
        Yes, it's time to unite Korea under the wise leadership of Kim Jong-un!

    March west in a parade through forests, swamps, gullies - you can introduce more sanctions that will not allow Britain and the United States to buy Russian oil, gas, nuclear fuel, titanium and other strategic goods in circumvention of the sanctions. But how will their sanctions work against trade between Russia and North Korea? - with the help of the merchant fleet or, especially, railway transport??? - wait, let me laugh!

    The European Commission is considering introducing sanctions against such vessels
    There is a new interactive game in Europe - suck out the “news” about Russia, blow it up in the media, and then come up with and introduce new sanctions. Arrogance and cynicism are already off the charts and apparently this is not the limit. Or maybe it’s time to turn off our “safety tap” and wait for the European boiler to explode?

    The DPRK has been under sanctions since its formation and is coping quite well, but the next sanctions will not change anything, and they no longer pay attention to them

    I have a question for our leadership: why not lift sanctions on North Korea and Iran altogether? North Korea is a big market and workers.

      Central Asians with their opinion are not enough for you, Sharia is more important than tradition and culture, where have the corrupt Alligarchy and the Federal Migration Service brought them? Perhaps you mistakenly think that they are better.

        How do you, Svetoch, know what is an error and what is not?
        A car and a murder weapon and a means of transportation.
