North Korea has not notified the International Maritime Organization of its alleged declaration of a no-sail zone, the IMO said Tuesday, two days after a Seoul official said Pyongyang set the zone in the East Sea, effective from Nov. 11 to Dec. 7.
Washington-funded broadcaster Voice of America reported the IMO spokesperson said the U.N. organization was not informed of Pyongyang’s no-sail zone.
On various occasions, the communist state has notified the IMO of its no-sail zones. But there was no notification in March when the North fired two ballistic missiles into the East Sea.
Some argued that even though the North declared a no-sail zone, it might not conduct any rocket launch that would put it deeper into diplomatic isolation. In August, the North set a no-sail zone and put its ship-to-ship missiles and coastal artillery in a combat-ready position, but it did not fire them.
