UAE cuts ties with North Korean; ends visas

On Thursday, The United Arab Emirates said it is ending the mission of North Korea's non-resident ambassador and terminating its own envoy's services in Pyongyang. Even the Visas would also stop and no new visas or company licences will be given to North Korean citizens.

This decision came after Trump urged United Nations member states last month to turn up the pressure on North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons.

“The measures... come within the context of its obligation as a responsible member of the international community to strengthen the international will and to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons and missile programs”, the ministry said.
