Statement of Senator Dodd on Launching of Missiles by North Korea
July 5, 2006“Yesterday’s launching of 6 missiles – including the long range Taepo-dong-2 missile -- by North Korea was a provocative act designed to get the attention of the international community. This behavior is unacceptable and extremely worrisome. The six-party talks which were established to find a solution to the North Korean nuclear crisis have remained stalled for too long because of lack of leadership. Every day that passes without a resolution of the North Korean nuclear threat makes the Korean peninsula less stable and a greater threat to international peace and security. It is now very clear that the Bush administration must urgently assume a leadership role, within the six-party talks and directly with North Korea as necessary, so that a political solution can be reached to remove the nuclear threat posed by that government.” ( published in: Foreign Affairs & Human Rights | Homeland Security | Media Center | Statements | United Nations ) |
