Smitty Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 North Korea says it has successfully carried out its third underground nuclear test, a move that has drawn international condemnation. Pyongyang said the test involved a "miniaturised" device and was carried out in a "perfect manner".The confirmation came three hours after seismic activity was detected at North Korea's nuclear test site.US President Barack Obama called for "swift" and "credible" international action in response.He said the "provocative" nuclear test did not make North Korea more secure, adding that Washington would remain vigilant and steadfast in its defence commitments to its allies in Asia.The United Nations had warned of "significant consequences" if Pyongyang went ahead.UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has condemned the test as a "clear and grave violation" of UN resolutions and a "deeply destabilising" provocation.The Security Council is to hold an emergency meeting at 14:00 GMT on Tuesday in New York, diplomats say. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-21421841ruh roh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
