The U.S. and its allies denounced North Korea’s launch of a new hypersonic ballistic missile during a U.N. Security Council (UNSC) meeting on Wednesday, prompting the DPRK to reassert its right to self-defense against “nuclear-based” enemies.
During a meeting to discuss Pyongyang’s test on Monday of the new intermediate-range hypersonic ballistic missile (IRBM), U.S. Deputy Representative Dorothy Shea criticized the DPRK for carrying out over 100 “unlawful ballistic missile launches” over the past three years.
