U.S. expects China to support fresh North Korea sanctions

PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S. President Barack Obama's top national security adviser Susan Rice said on Monday, February 15 that she expects China will support new international sanctions on North Korea for its recent rocket launches, Reuters reports.

"I think it unlikely that China wants to be seen by the international community as the protector of North Korea given its recent outrageous behavior," Rice told reporters at a briefing.

"Given that, I expect that they will indeed come on board with significant new sanctions and we're working toward that end," Rice said.
