Mozambique is denying allegations that it continues to do business with North Korea in violation of U.N. sanctions. A cnn report published this month found that North Korea has signed contracts worth millions of dollars in Mozambique, funneled the money through diplomatic channels and used profits from fishing vessels off the Mozambican coast to fund its nuclear program. But Mozambique's deputy minister of foreign affairs and cooperation, Maria Manuela Lucas, denied that her government has made any agreements with North Korea that violate sanctions. She said Mozambique welcomes outside monitoring. She also said her government is working with private Mozambican businesses to educate them about the sanctions and shut down illegal operations. The report also alleges that North Korea is providing military training to elite Mozambican forces and offering technical support to the military. A previous U.N. report alleged that North Korea and Mozambique had a military partnership worth at least $6 million. North Korea used a shell company to sell weapons, including missiles, radar and air defense systems, according to the report. 莫桑比克否认它违反了联合国的制裁继续与朝鲜做生意。 美国有线电视资讯网（cnn）本月的报道说，朝鲜与莫桑比克签署了数以百万美元计的合同，通过外交渠道转送资金，并利用在莫桑比克沿海渔船的获利资助其核项目。 |
