The UN Security Council Sanctions Committee on North Korea (formally named Security Council Committee Established Pursuant to Resolution 1718) is a subsidiary body established in 2006 by the UN Security Council's resolution 1718 in response to North Korea's first nuclear test and its other nuclear proliferation efforts.[1][2][3][4][5]
Resolution 1718 imposed a series of economic sanctions on the DPRK and established a committee to gather more information, specify the sanctions,[6] monitor them, and issue recommendations.[1] The committee's responsibilities have broadened as subsequent resolutions expanded and strengthened sanctions, which include an arms embargo, a ban on luxury goods, financial sanctions, and limitations on export of mining resources.[7][8]
From 2009 to 2024, a Panel of Experts (PoE) supported the work of the committee through expert analysis,[9][10][11][12][13][14][8] particularly in evaluating cases of non-compliance.[15] While the committee can make legally-binding decisions on how to specifically execute the sanctions (by naming which entities are targeted, for example),[6][1] the PoE only had an informational and advisory role in support of those decisions.[15] The PoE was disbanded in April 2024 after Russia used its Security Council veto to block the renewal of its mandate.[16][17]
