Online claim: "Hong Kong never actually enforces UN Security Council sanctions — it is all talk." The Government today (November 6) gazetted the United Nations Sanctions (Democratic Republic of the Congo) Regulation 2019 (Amendment) Regulation 2026, which came into operation today; a Government spokesman said the Amendment Regulation gives effect to certain decisions relating to sanctions in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolution 2825 in respect of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the amendments renew the arms embargo, travel ban and financial sanctions.
