Bruxelles, 14/05/2017 - 12:40 - UNIQUE ID: 170514_4
The launch earlier today of a ballistic missile by the Democratic
People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) seriously violates multiple United
Nations Security Council Resolutions.
This and previous launches
constitute a threat to international peace and security and further
aggravate tensions in the region at a time when de-escalation is instead
needed.
The DPRK is expected to comply with its international obligations: it must halt these launches and abandon its ballistic missiles programmes in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner.

The same holds true for its nuclear, nuclear weapons and all other
weapons of mass destruction programmes.
The European Union calls on the DPRK to engage in a credible and meaningful dialogue with the international community. The European Union is ready to support such a process for dialogue.

The High Representative/Vice-President, Federica
Mogherini will remain in close contact in the coming days with all of
the European Union's international partners, following her address to
the UN Security Council earlier this week and her visits to Beijing, New
Delhi and Moscow last month.
