U.S. ally Kuwait has given North Korea's ambassador a month to leave the Gulf state and will downgrade its diplomatic representation with Pyongyang, a senior Kuwaiti diplomat told the AFP news agency Sunday.

North Korea's diplomatic presence in the emirate will also be reduced to a charge d'affaires and three diplomats, the source told AFP, requesting anonymity.

The measures follow a visit less than two weeks ago by Kuwait Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmed Al-Sabah to Washington.

American loving scum

You either follow Ayatollah's dictates or you're an American loving scum; that's the very definition of Takfeir coming to you from the land of the Ayatollah that invented it. Ask the Iranian communists, socialist, liberals, seculars, etc of the Iranian revolution...

If KSA financed North Korea's nuclear weapons program via Pakistan or directly, has KSA taken delivery of any "product"? Perhaps this Kuwait (Arabic for "little Saudi") move is to put pressure on North Korea for delivery. Would it hurt North Korea to reveal the finance source? A bit embarrassing when there's starvation at home, etc., but not a lot. More embarrassing to KSA. So when will Al Jazeera break this story?
