dprk.gifUS commerce secretary Carlos Gutierrez is banning the export of Segways, iPods, and other luxury goods to North Korea in response to Kim Jong Il 's apparent nuclear test last month.

The action is line with UN Security Council Resolution 1718 imposing sanctions on North Korea. The US is banning exports of luxury goods to the country.

Oooohhhhh it's a very strong and scary threat no ? Who will check Kim at the border when back from shopping in China or Russia, US Customs ?
