North Korea accuses U.S. of driving peninsula to "explosion"

North Korea accused the United States on Tuesday of driving the Korean peninsula towards an extreme level of explosion and declared that it was justified in responding with tough counter-measures.

The combative statement came hours North Korea fired a ballistic missile over Japans northern Hokkaido island into the sea, drawing a sharp reaction from Japan, the United States, South Korea and other states.

Han Tae Song, North Koreas ambassador to the U.N. in Geneva, did not explicitly refer to his countrys latest test. But he said U.S. pressure and provocative acts would only give his country grounds to take unspecified measures.

It is an undeniable fact that the U.S.

is driving the situation of the Korean peninsula towards an extreme level of explosion by deploying huge strategic assets around the peninsula, by conducting a series of nuclear war drills and maintaining nuclear freeze and blackmail for over half a century, Han told the Conference on Disarmament in Geneva.

Fears have grown over North Koreas development of missiles and nuclear weapons since Pyongyang test-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) in July. Those fears worsened after Trump warned that North Korea would face fire and fury if it threatened the United States.

Joint U.S.-South Korea military drills, currently taking place on the peninsula, are part of long-standing U.S. hostile policy towards the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (DPRK), Han said.

Now that the U.S. has openly declared its hostile intention towards the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea, by waging aggressive joint military exercises despite repeated warnings.

my country has every reason to respond with tough counter-measures as an exercise of its right to self defence, Han said. should be wholly responsible for the catastrophic consequences it will entail..

U.S. disarmament ambassador Robert Wood, speaking to reporters, said that North Koreas test was another provocation and big concern to be discussed by the U.N. Security Council later in the day.

My country and I know a number of other countries are going to continue to demand that North Korea ends these provocative acts and take a different path, Wood told the forum.

The United States has an iron-clad commitment to its allies, he added. Both Wood and South Koreas envoy Kim Inchul called for Pyongyang to resume talks on giving up its nuclear arsenal.

Denuclearisation is the only way forward to guarantee security and economic viability instead of continuing with provocations which are unacceptable, Kim said. Japans envoy Nobushige Takamizawa condemned the missile test noting it also posed a danger to aviation and navigation.

Whereabouts of former Thai PM Yingluck unknown, defence minister says |News General - Duration: 3:48.

Whereabouts of former Thai PM Yingluck unknown, defence minister says

Thailands defence minister on Monday (Aug 28) said he did not know the whereabouts of former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra, days after she failed to show up for a verdict in her trial for negligence at which she faced up to 10 years in prison.

Yingluck, whose government was ousted in a 2014 coup, fled to Dubai via Singapore, sources in her Puea Thai Party said on the weekend. Her departure leaves the populist movement that has dominated Thai politics for more than a decade leaderless.

Her brother, former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted by the military in 2006 and also fled Thailand to avoid a 2008 jail sentence for corruption, has a home in Dubai.

We dont know where Yingluck fled and whether she has asked for asylum anywhere, Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, who is also a deputy prime minister, told reporters. We havent asked for her extradition yet..

Yingluck was often followed by plain-clothes police, her aides said. During a provincial tour last year men in military uniform would often follow her as she greeted supporters.

Critics are now asking how a person under close scrutiny by security forces could leave the country without being noticed. How should I know? was Prawits response to reporters who asked him that on Monday.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Yingluck, 50, who had been due to appear at the Supreme Court on Friday (Aug 25) to hear a verdict in a case against her, involving a rice buying scheme introduced by her government that lost an estimated US$8 billion (S$10.

A former commerce minister in her government was jailed for 42 years on Friday for falsifying government-to-government rice deals in connection with the same subsidy scheme. Reuters could not reach either Thaksin or Yingluck for comment on Monday.

Yingluck, who is usually active on social media, has not posted on her Facebook page since Thursday, when she told supporters she would see them at the court.

Defence ministry spokesman Kongcheep Tanatravanich told reporters he was confident Yingluck was no longer in Thailand. We have to see first which country shes in. The security side is working on this, Kongcheep said.

Srisuwan Janya, secretary-general of the Association to Protect the Thai Constitution political group, said he would file a complaint on Monday with the National Anti Corruption Commission over what he called government officials failure to prevent Yingluck from fleeing.

By mid-morning on Monday Janya had yet filed the complaint. Sentencing in Yinglucks case has been moved to Sept 27 and is expected to be delivered in absentia.
