US State Secretary Rex Tillerson refused to announce what new sanctions the US intends to introduce against Pyongyang.
Earlier Washington again designated North Korea a state sponsor of terrorism.
“I’d like to leave it to Treasury to announce those tomorrow,” Tillerson said at the White House Daily Press Briefing.
Earlier, President Donald Trump said that the Treasury Department is going to be announcing additional sanctions on Tuesday. He described the level of sanctions as “a very large, one of the highest level of sanctions.”
