New Delhi, Dec 23 (ANI): The U.N. Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea. The sanctions have been slapped to punish N. Korea's struggling economy, and force it to abandon its nuclear and missile programmes. North Korea successfully tested a new intercontinental ballistic missile in a "breakthrough" that puts the U.S. mainland within range of its nuclear weapons.
