CHINA RESUMES COAL TRADE WITH NORTH KOREA

"On Dec. 11, China's Commerce Ministry announced that it would ban imports of North Korean coal through the end of that month to comply with the U.N. Security Council Resolution 2321 adopted on Nov. 30 to punish the North for its fifth nuclear test. Coal is the North's single largest export item, and China accounts for nearly 40 percent of the shipments."

Are they doing it to shut Kim up or to flip the UN the bird?
