North Korea Makes Its MoveDigitalGlobe, AP7 photos North Korea has launched a rocket, Japanese media reported Saturday. Here, a satellite image released in late March shows a rocket that North Korea said it was going to launch as a communications satellite. The U.S. and allies said they suspected the rocket instead of being a test for launching a nuclear missile that could reach at least to Alaska.(Note: Please disable your pop-up blocker)
"We look on this as a provocative act," said Lash.
North Korea had informed international authorities that it planned to launch a rocket sometime between Saturday and Wednesday in order to put a satellite into orbit.
But the U.S., South Korea, Japan and others suspect it is a cover for testing a long-range missile for the North, which has nuclear weapons. Leaders from those countries had warned Pyongyang not to proceed with the planned rocket launch.
They fear such a test could be a first step toward putting a nuclear warhead on a missile capable of reaching Alaska and beyond.
The launch "will prompt the United States to take appropriate steps to let North Korea know that it cannot threaten the safety and security of other countries with impunity," Lash said.
"North's Korea's development, deployment and proliferation of missiles, ballistic missile-related materials, equipment and technologies pose a serious threat to the northeast Asia region and to the international community," Lash said.
