North Korea demands return of ship seized by US

North Korea has demanded the immediate return of a cargo ship seized by the US, branding the move an unlawful robbery.

Last week the US justice department accused Pyongyang of violating international sanctions by using the vessel for coal shipments.

The ship, the wise honest, was first impounded in Indonesia in April 2018.

North Korea said its seizure violated the spirit of the 2018 summit agreement between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un.
