(VOVWorld) – North Korea said yesterday/Tuesday that it was abandoning an agreement it made in February with the United States, in which it promised to suspend enriching uranium, nuclear tests and long-range missile tests. North Korea’s Foreign Ministry said that it “resolutely and totally” rejected the United Nations Security Council’s condemnation of its failed rocket launch last week. It will continue to launch rockets to try to position satellites in orbit. The ministry’s statement hinted, but did not make clear, that the North may now carry out a long-range missile or nuclear test. The United States had already suspended the deal itself because of the rocket launch, including 240,000 tons of food aid the United States had promised the North.
