This is so bullshit. DPRK for all intents and purposes have NO FINANCIAL interests in the United Stares outside of a small office near the UN and perhaps several cars for their diplomats. And, US businesses are ALREADY proscribed from any business whatsoever with North Korea. They’re laughing at us. It’s nothing.

I have read rumors that the U.S. Treasury kept changing the U.S. $100 bills because of North Korean and Iranian government counterfeiting of U.S. money.

You’ll come to North Korea for the paranoia,
but you’ll stay for the prison camp hard labor.

Did you hear about the American kid touring Norkland, stole some trinket and got 15 years?

Not fair. I heard Wolf Blitzer the other night say Hillary won the North Korea Primary..

It was funny as heck, even though he corrected himself.

What property does North Korea own in the U.S.? And what trade and investments does the U.S. have in North Korea? We are still in a state of war with them.
