U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned North Korea's latest missile launch, Tuesday, and called on Pyongyang to refrain from further provocations.
North Korea test-fired what appeared to be an intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM) Sunday (KST).
"The Secretary-General condemns the launch of a ballistic missile of possible intermediate-range by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Jan. 30," a spokesperson for the top U.N. official said in a released statement, referring to North Korea by its official name.
"This is a breaking of the DPRK's announced moratorium in 2018 on launches of this nature, and a clear violation of Security Council resolutions," added the statement.
North Korea has maintained a self-imposed moratorium on nuclear weapons long-range missile testing since November 2017.
Its leader Kim Jong-un, however, said in 2019 that he no longer felt bound by such restrictions. The North also said earlier this month that it would consider restarting "all temporarily-suspended activities."
The country has so far staged seven missile tests since the start of this year, mostly involving short-range missiles.
"It is of great concern that the DPRK has again disregarded any consideration for international flight or maritime safety," the U.N. spokesperson said.
"The Secretary-General urges the DPRK to desist from taking any further counter-productive actions and calls for all parties to seek a peaceful diplomatic solution."
North Korea has stayed away from denuclearization talks since late 2019, and has remained unresponsive to recent U.S. overtures for dialogue. (Yonhap)
