WSJ '러, 유엔제재에도 1만명 이상 北노동자 신규 고용허가'

Russia is reportedly letting in thousands of North Korean workers on brand new work permits -- actions U.S. officials say potentially violate UN sanctions.
The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday... that since last September when the sanctions took effect, Russia has registered more than 10-thousand North Korean workers, and at least 700 new work permits have been issued this year.
The UN Security Council barred governments from issuing any more work permits to North Koreans,... although some existing contracts were allowed to continue.
The sanctions do contain some narrow exceptions,... so officials are investigating whether Russia is breaking the rules.
