US sees no high-tech trade sanctions violations by UN agency
None
A preliminary US assessment has concluded that the UN's World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) did not violate UN sanctions when it sent technical equipment to North Korea and Iran, the State Department said on Tuesday.
As two senior US lawmakers accused the Geneva-based agency of stonewalling a US probe into the transfers, the State Department indicated it was satisfied with WIPO's cooperation on the issue. (Reuters)
