S. Korea inspecting ports to block shipments from N. Korea: official
By Sam Kim
SEOUL, July 1 (Yonhap) -- South Korea is inspecting its major ports to keep North Korean products from entering its soil after Seoul banned trade with the communist state over the sinking of a warship, an official said Thursday.
The ban took effect in late May when Seoul announced that a multinational probe found Pyongyang responsible for the March 26 sinking of the 1,200 Cheonan corvette. Forty-six South Korean sailors died in the sinking for which North Korea denies any role.
