North Korea Says Tested ICBM Can Carry Large Nuclear Warhead
freebeacon.com
North Korea said on Wednesday it had conducted a test of a newly developed intercontinental ballistic missile that can carry a large and heavy nuclear warhead, triggering a call by Washington for global action to hold Pyongyang accountable for its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said the successful test completed the country's strategic weapons capability that includes atomic and hydrogen bombs and ICBMs.
He added Pyongyang would not negotiate with the United States to give up those weapons until Washington abandons its hostile policy against the North, the country's KCNA news agency said.
The test on Tuesday successfully verified the technical requirements of the newly developed ICBM in stage separation, the atmospheric re-entry of the warhead and the late-stage control of the warhead, KCNA said.
A spokeswoman for the Pentagon said the United States had concluded that North Korea test-launched an ICBM.
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson called for international action, saying the test was a new escalation of Pyongyang's nuclear threat.
