(Fixing spelling of Macau to conform with style) WASHINGTON, April 10 (Reuters) - The U.S. State Department said on Tuesday Macau authorities have unblocked funds in frozen North Korean accounts at Banco Delta Asia and "authorized account holders" could withdraw their money. "I will let the Macanese authorities speak to how they want to put it but the bottom line is that they have unblocked these accounts and the account holders can -- authorized account holders can -- withdraw the funds from those accounts," U.S. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters.
