SKorea warns North of UN action over rocket launch
South Korea warned Friday of United Nations "countermeasures" after North Korea set dates for a satellite launch seen by Seoul and Washington as a disguised test of a missile, which could reach Alaska. "Regardless of whether North Korea fires a missile or launches a satellite, I believe this issue will be raised at the UN Security Council," Seoul's Foreign Minister Yu Myung-Hwan told reporters. A statement from his ministry predicted "consultation and countermeasures" at the council. Japan also said it would refer any launch to the UN as a violation of a past resolution. "We will lodge protests through the United Nations and will continue to urge (North Korea) to abort the project," Prime Minister Taro Aso said.
