Summary: | Beginning with UN Security Council Resolution 1718 in 2006, the international community has imposed a series of sanctions against North Korea in an effort to halt the progress of its nuclear program. These sanctions forbid most forms of the direct or indirect supply, sale, or transfer of arms, technical training, advice, services, or assistance, yet North Korea's historical military and police cooperation with certain partner states has continued.

The case of Uganda illustrates some of the achievements and the challenges of international sanctions diplomacy. |
