North Korea rocket launch sparks global anger

United Nations: The UN Security Council held emergency talks on North Korea’s long-range rocket launch amid western demands for tough action against the isolated state.

Widespread condemnation followed North Korea’s firing of a rocket, which it says successfully took a satellite into space. The act came just days before the North’s young ruler, Kim Jong-Un, marks 12 months in power. The 15-member Security Council held closed consultations on the new proliferation challenge, with western nations looking for signs of China’s willingness to punish its neighbor. http://rtilive.pk/detail/7762
