Vietnam requests updates to UN Security Council resolution listings

Changes requested as sanctioned entity does not have branch in Vietnam and DPRK nationals have left

Vietnam has requested amendments to designation information on two DPRK nationals who were residing in the country and who were listed within UN Resolution 2270 for their connections to a sanctioned entity, the country's implementation report shows.

The report, submitted on June 24, says North Korean nationals Kim Jung Jong and Choe Song Il were not representatives of the “Tanchon Commercial Bank in Viet nam”, which was sanction by the UN in 2009.
