The North Korean summit failed last month.
S. Treasury Department also issued a new announcement listing 67 ships that had illegally transferred refined oil with North Korean tankers or are believed to have exported North Korean coal.
The ministry has identified the companies for the new sanctions as Dalian Haibo International Freight Co. , Ltd. and Liaoning Danxing International Freight Co. , Ltd. , and said it will help North Korea to evade US and international sanctions.
Reuters could not find a contact for any company seeking comment.
S. Sanctions ban the United States from dealing with designated companies and freezing any of their assets in the United States.
The United States has led the international community\'s efforts to force North Korea to abandon its nuclear and ballistic missile programs through sanctions.
Three weeks before Washington announced the sanctions, President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held their second meeting, talks about North Korea\'s demand to lift sanctions and the United States\'s demand for conflict in Pyongyang to abandon its nuclear weapons.

\"The Treasury will continue to enforce our sanctions, and we make it clear that shipping companies use deception to cover up illegal trade with North Korea, which exposes huge risks,\" he said . \".
A senior US official, who declined to be named, told reporters that the latest sanctions showed some \"leaks\" from China\'s sanctions against North Korea, but mainly to comply with UN resolutions.
If financial and shipping companies are found to have violated the sanctions, it is possible for them to take action, the official said.
However, the official insisted Thursday\'s statement was aimed at maintaining sanctions against North Korea rather than increasing pressure.

Contacts with Kim Jong Il, but North Korea has warned that unless Washington makes concessions, it is considering suspending negotiations and may reconsider the missile and nuclear test freeze imposed since 2017.
On Monday, two senior U. S. Senators called on the Trump administration to correct the slowdown in U. S. sanctions against North Korea, saying that diplomatic contacts between the United States and Pyongyang have decreased significantly over the past year.
They pointed out that a recent UN report found that North Korea continued to ignore UN sanctions as oil products and coal smuggling increased and weapons sales bans violated.

The Ministry of Finance said Dalian Haibo\'s goal was to deal with Paeksol Trading Company, which was previously sanctioned by the United States for North Korea.
It is reported that in early 2018, Dalian Haibo transported goods from Dalian, China, to Paeksol in the south slope of North Korea. Ships flying flags
Liaoning Danxing \"frequently uses cheating\" to enable North Korean purchasing officials in the EU to work, the statement said.
North Korea\'s evasive tactics include disabling or manipulating automatic identification systems, carrying out physical modifications to vessels, transferring goods between vessels, and forging cargo documents, the ministry said.

Vessel transfers include transfers from Taiwan, China, Russia and South Korea.
