China says will limit oil, refined product exports to North Korea

BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s Commerce Ministry said on Friday it will limit exports of , refined oil products, steel and other metals to North Korea, in line with tough new sanctions imposed by the United Nations for Pyongyang’s missile tests.

The move by China will be effective on Jan. 6, it said.
