Spain launches North Korea ambassador

Spain expands the country's ambassador to North Korea.

'Today, the North Korean ambassador has been informed of the decision that he is considered as persona non grata. Therefore, he has to stop work and leave the country before September 30, 'the minister said Monday in a statement.

The UN Security Council decided earlier this month to impose new sanctions on North Korea and to call on the United States to break countries on diplomatic and financial ties with Kim Jong-un regime.

On Sunday, Kuwait also decided to expel the North Korean ambassador. Also, it must leave the country within a month because of the continuing rockets and threats with atomic bombs by Pyongyang.
