(USA), Feb 24 (ANI): The United States President Donald Trump on Friday announced new sanctions against North Korea, specifically targeting the country's shipping and trading companies, in a fitting response to further isolate the communist country economically.

Announcing the new sanctions at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Trump imposed sanctions against 27 entities and 28 ship vessels either registered or flagged in several countries, including North Korea, China and Singapore, the CNN reported.

16 North Korean shipping companies and nine international shipping companies were added to the US sanctions' list..
