Congress makes the following findings: The Government of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has flagrantly defied the international community by illicitly developing its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, in violation of United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013), 2270 (2016), 2321 (2016), 2371 (2017), 2375 (2017), and 2397 (2017). The March 5, 2019, report of the Panel of Experts established pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1874
(2009)highlighted several deficiencies in the enforcement of sanctions with respect to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. The Panel of Experts report illustrated that the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation are among those countries not fully implementing multilateral sanctions and that the Russian Federation has impeded efforts by the United States to expose and address illegal ship-to-ship transfers. Despite known deficiencies in global sanctions implementation, the pace of United States sanctions designations with respect to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has slowed noticeably, even as relevant United States law, including the North Korea Sanctions and Policy Enhancement Act of 2016 ( 22 U.S.C. 9201 et seq.) and the Asia Reassurance Initiative Act of 2018 ( Public Law 115–409 ), mandates the imposition of United States sanctions for behaviors described in the Panel of Experts report, including human rights violations and malign activities in cyberspace.
