'Specific' U.N. steps on N. Korea expected on Monday: U.S. diplomat
TOKYO. April 16. KAZINFORM The United Nations is expected to take new action Monday over North Korea's failed launch last week of a long-range rocket in a manner that will satisfy Japan and other major powers, Kurt Campbell, the top U.S. diplomat on East Asian policy, said.
Campbell, speaking to reporters in Tokyo after holding talks with senior Japanese officials, said, ''The process at the United Nations, you will see specific steps on Monday'' in New York, Kyodo reports.
''There is very close coordination between the United States and Japan and I think what we have heard is satisfaction with how we work together,'' Campbell said at the Foreign Ministry, when asked whether Tokyo and Washington have already agreed on how the U.N. Security Council should respond to the North's latest provocation.
