News North Korea Sentences U.S. Student to 15 Years Hard Labor

North Korea’s Supreme Court issued the sentence on Wednesday against Otto Frederick Warmbier, a student at the University of Virginia, the country’s official Korean Central News Agency said. Warmbier entered North Korea as a tourist in late December and took down a propaganda sign in Pyongyang so he could exchange it for money outside the country, KCNA reported in late February.

The sentencing comes as the U.S. is conducting annual military exercises with South Korea, which North Korea has denounced as a dress rehearsal for war. Early this month the United Nations Security Council tightened sanctions on North Korea, imposing a ban on exports of certain minerals -- a key source of hard currency for the Kim Jong Un regime -- over its fourth nuclear test in January and a long-range rocket launch weeks later.
