Qatar and Kuwait have agreed to block the release of new visas for North Korean laborers.

Moreover, during the following months almost all North Koreans will be forced to leave the two Arab states.

“Approximately 1.000 (workers – n.r.) will remain, but this number will decrease as employment contracts expire.

Visas for North Korean citizens will not be renewed”, the government officials from Doha declared for Reuters.

According to the state leaders from these countries, North Koreans who work abroad are considered an important source of revenue for the Pyongyang regime.

Qatar’s decision comes after Kuwait announced they are planning on expelling North Korean workers and the North Korean ambassador to Al-Kuwait in the following months.

Meanwhile, Spanish authorities have asked North Korea’s ambassador to Madrid, Kim Hyok-chol, to leave the country by the end of the month because they strongly disagree with the state’s stubbornness of continuing with their nuclear tests.
