President Donald Trump called an emergency meeting
on the 4th of July to formulate a 'measured response' to North Korea's
first intercontinental ballistic missile test, amid fears it could reach
as far as Alaska.
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has confirmed North Korea successfully tested an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) capable of hitting Alaska.
And Tillerson says that’s a new escalation of the threat posed to the United States and the world by North Korea.
Tillerson says the U.S. will bring North Korea’s action before the United Nations Security Council.
His statement provided the first confirmation of the U.S. conclusion that the missile was an ICBM.
The U.S. military’s initial assessment was that North Korea fired an intermediate-range missile.
The U.S. has requested a closed-door meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the latest launch, a spokesman for the US mission to the United Nations says.
The spokesman said the meeting of the 15-member council was likely to be scheduled for Wednesday.
