Treasury Designates Burmese Companies and an Individual with Ties to the Directorate of Defense Industries
12/17/2013
Second Action Targeting North Korean Military Ties to Burma This Year
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department
of the Treasury today designated Burmese companies Asia Metal Company
Ltd., Soe Min Htike Co. Ltd., and Excellence Mineral Manufacturing Co.
Ltd. pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13619, which targets those
involved in arms trading between North Korea and Burma.
Treasury also
designated Lt. Colonel Kyaw Nyunt Oo, a Burmese military Staff Officer
acting on behalf of the Burmese Directorate of Defense Industries (DDI),
which was designated pursuant to E.O. 13619 in July 2012. These
actions continue Treasury’s efforts to target those linked to DDI, which
has been involved in purchasing military equipment and related materiel
from North Korea.
This action specifically targets Lt.
Colonel Kyaw Nyunt Oo and the aforementioned entities; it does not
generally target the Government of Burma. In November 2012, the
Government of Burma publicly announced its intention to abide by United
Nations Security Council Resolution 1874, which prohibits the
procurement of military goods and assistance from North Korea.
“The revenues from these continuing
military sales directly support North Korea’s illicit activities,” said
Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence David S.
Cohen. “We will continue to target this activity in Burma, and the
region, as we work with our international partners to shut down North
Korea’s dangerous and destabilizing weapons proliferation.”
Today’s action follows Treasury’s July
2, 2013 designation of Lt. General Thein Htay, the Chief of DDI, who is
involved in the illicit trade of North Korean arms to Burma, and
advances U.S. efforts to pressure the military sales relationship
between Burma and North Korea.
The international community has
repeatedly condemned North Korea’s nuclear and ballistic missile
proliferation activity, most recently in UN Security Council resolutions
2087 and 2094. North Korea’s arms trade provides it with an important
source of revenue with which to expand and enhance its proscribed
nuclear and ballistic missile programs, which are a threat to
international peace and security.
North Korean weapons officials in Burma
have operated several cover or front addresses to receive goods from
overseas, and as recently as June 2013, Soe Min Htike Co. Ltd. and
Excellence Mineral were companies working with North Korean officials to
import materiel for military weapons programs. As of December 2012,
Asia Metal constructed buildings and supplied construction materials on a
DDI factory compound where approximately 30 North Koreans were still
working.
As of February 2013, Soe Min Htike Co.
Ltd was a known procurement agent for the Burmese military’s DDI,
specializing in importing foreign supplies and equipment for DDI for at
least 30 years.
U.S. persons are generally prohibited
from engaging in any transactions with the designees listed today, and
any assets they may have subject to U.S. jurisdiction are frozen.
