North Korean state media report on comments from Chinese President Xi:

  • Supports North Korea's correct direction to solve the Korean peninsula issue politically

---

Xi has done more than just mouth his support:

  • Russia and China on Tuesday delayed a U.S. request for a U.N. Security Council sanctions committee to demand an immediate halt to deliveries of refined petroleum to North Korea
  • The United States, backed by dozens of allies, told the committee last week that there had been at least 79 illegal deliveries of fuel in 2019 - mainly through transfers between ships at sea - and concluded that North Korea had breached an annual U.N. cap of 500,000 barrels imposed in December 2017.

China and Russia, not fussed ….
