Japan tight-lipped on missile report, hopes to keep N. Korea in check
Japan on Tuesday warned North Korea against any moves to use missiles, with the Foreign Ministry spokesman describing the missile issue as a ''serious problem'' for world peace but declining to confirm or deny reports of Pyongyang's preparations for a missile launch. The North Korean missile issue ''is a serious problem not only for Japan's national security but also world peace and stability, as well as from the viewpoint of nonproliferation of weapons of mass destruction,'' Press Secretary Kazuo Kodama said while withholding all comment on intelligence and other details.Posted by: Fred 2009-02-04 |
