Tillerson: China Is ‘Fully Committed to Implementing All of the U.N. Sanctions’

‘We continue to talk with them’

EXCERPT:

TILLERSON: "And let me say this with China. We continue to talk with them, first to ensure that they are fully committed to implementing all of the U.N. sanctions and they have said they are. As you'll recall, the last round of sanctions imposed a pretty severe restriction on the import of finished products like fuels, petroleum, diesel, jet fuel and whatnot. But we have suggested to them, 'Look, you control that oil pipe line that feeds their refinery. You can do that unilaterally on your own if you want to increase the pressure.' Whether they’re doing that or not, we don’t know and it’s difficult for us to know whether they’re taking actions to curtail all supplies to them."
