Poland condemns North Korea’s latest missile test

Poland’s Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the latest North Korea’s IMCB test. “The actions taken by the authorities in Pyongyang violate the existing international commitments and pose a threat to the security and peace in the region, and to the international non-proliferation and arms control regime. We call on the DPRK authorities to immediately stop the provocative tests using ballistic missile technologies and to abandon the ongoing missile and nuclear program in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner, pursuant to the relevant UN Security Council Resolutions,” MFA said in its statement. Warsaw also called for imposing harsher sanctions on North Korea by the UN Security Council. The missile launched on Tuesday reached the altitude of 4,475 kilometers before splashing down in waters off the coast of Japan, North Korea said. US Defense Secretary James Mattis said earlier the missile launched demonstrated North Korea had the ability to hit “everywhere in the world.”
