North Korea Going Ahead with Missile Launch
We’re on final approach to North Korea’s long range ballistic missile test; they’ve begun fueling the multi-stage rocket.
Don’t worry, though; Barack Obama plans to respond with a firm protest to the United Nations.
President Barack Obama told his South Korean counterpart, Lee Myung-Bak, at the Group of 20 nations summit in London today he won’t allow North Korea to drive a wedge between them, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Obama praised Lee for exercising restraint in dealing with provocations from the North. Both leaders agreed to respond to the launch by registering a firm protest with the United Nations.
