US again names N Korea a 'state sponsor of terrorism'

United States President Donald Trump has said that America was yet again designating North Korea as a "state sponsor of terrorism".

Trump announced the move on Monday, during a public meeting with his Cabinet, at the White House, adding the Treasury Department would announce new sanctions against North Korea on Tuesday.

"[This] should have happened a long time ago," CNN quoted Trump, as saying.

North Korea was removed from the list by President George W. Bush in 2008.
