Swiss halt North Korea ski lift deal

Oh the tragedy of it all :nope:

Quote:

Switzerland has blocked a deal to sell ski lifts to North Korea in the latest setback for leader Kim Jong-un's pet ski resort project.
The Swiss government cited expanded sanctions on luxury exports to North Korea.
Heavy rains and landslides have already delayed the project, viewed as a response to South Korea hosting the 2018 Winter Olympic Games.
Kim Jong-un has ordered the army to complete the resort by year's end.

Looks like Kim will resort to any tactic.

The Ski lift was a covert operation to get thier Nukes higher anyway.
You can throw them alot farther from up there you know.

I'm so old! I don't remember a rope tow as a luxury item ...my first social experience was sharing a T-bar ride up the slope (BIGWALLEYE, if yer on) at Trollhaugen! Fat Kim Jong should start with the basics! Composite skiis are probably classified there. :arrgh!:
