North Korea has engaged in activities that include assisting Syria in the design and construction of Dair Alzour nuclear reactor, and the possible sale of a magnetometer to Myanmar, which can be used in a nuclear centrifuge or missile guidance system.
The country has used methods, such as false description and mislabelling, alteration and falsification of the information, use of multiple layers or intermediaries, shell companies and financial institutions to conceal its activities.
The report was prepared to monitor the enforcement of sanctions intended to block North Korea from exporting or importing weapons and nuclear or missile technology.
