ASIA | Threat to 'enemy' North Korea does not hide that directs its nuclear and missile tests to U.S.

North Korea has said it is preparing a new nuclear test and continue with the launch of satellites and long-range missiles, said that while these actions are directed against their "enemy" America. The Pyongyang regime made the warning in a statement published by the state agency, KCNA, two days after the Security Council expanded UN sanctions on the communist country for its recent rocket launch. "We do not hide the fact that satellites and long-range missiles that will be launching nuclear test and we will make will be directed to our sworn enemy, the United States," the statement said. The powerful Defence Commission of North Korea, who signed the statement today, considered illegal and illegitimate sanctions of the Security Council of the UN , which he accused of responding to the interests of the U.S. in its "anti-political North Korea ". "Our peaceful satellites launched continuously remain in our national struggle to defend the right to self-defense," the North Korean statement. Fears of a new nuclear threat from Pyongyang increased in recent weeks in South Korea, where Seoul's intelligence services detected by satellite images of North Korean technicians have completed preparations for a trial of this type, according to the local agency Yonhap. South Korea believes that the communist country could carry out within days its nuclear test from the same basis as used in the previous two in 2006 and 2009, which earned him international condemnation and UN sanctions. The latest threat from North Korea coincided with the meeting in Seoul today, the U.S. envoys and South Korea for the stalled negotiations on North Korean denuclearization, to discuss follow-up action after the recent resolution of the Security Council UN. After the meeting, the U.S. representative, Glynn Davies, urged North Korea not to conduct a new nuclear test and improve its relations with the international community.
