US denounces a 'dangerous' lack of action by the UN Security Council on North Korea's missile launches, accusing — but not naming — China and Russia of having 'forced' the body 'into silence'
The United States accuses UN Security Council of a lack of action on North Korea's ballistic missile launches, warning that the 15-member body's failure to respond emboldens the DPRK.
The reclusive North Korean state test-fired dozens of missiles in 2022, setting security postures in East Asia on edge. It fired two ballistic missiles on Monday, 48 hours after it test-launched an intercontinental ballistic missile. The 15-member panel's "lack of action is worse than shameful. It is dangerous," Thomas-Greenfield warned, saying the "repeated failures to respond emboldens the DPRK," the official acronym for North Korea, to conduct such destabilising launches without fear of consequences.
She noted that thanks to sanctions approved by the Security Council in 2017, Pyongyang "refrained from any major provocations for nearly five years" and also engaged in dialogue with the West.
