The Prime Minister of Liquorland, Brett Wilson, this morning announced that Liquorland is suspending diplomatic
relations with North Korea with immediate effect.

Prime Minister Wilson told media that North Korea "should spend less time blowing things up and more time sitting down
and having a drink with the neighbours."

imposing a trade embargo with immediate effect. "I've always wanted to impose an embargo," the Minister added, "and this
guy's been asking for it for ages."
In taking these actions, Liquorland is leading the world in its diplomatic response to the North Korean nuclear test,
just as it leads the world in the provision of quality wine, beer and spirits, Fly Buys, gift wrapping and home

Liquorland's main industry is tourism and its national bird is the roast chicken.
