TOKYO (Reuters) – Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Wednesday strongly condemned North Korea’s latest launch of ballistic missiles and said it was a violation of United Nations resolutions.
Abe told reporters Pyongyang had launched two ballistic missiles earlier in the day.
The launch came a day after North Korea announced it would hold working-level talks with the United States at the weekend.
