 The U.N. Security Council plans to meet in closed session on North Korea's long-anticipated missile testing on Wednesday morning, a French spokesman said. The meeting was requested late on Tuesday by Japan's U.N. ambassador, Kenzo Oshima, who is expected to introduce a draft resolution, diplomatic sources said. France's U.N. Ambassador, Jean-Marc de la Sabliere, whose country holds the council presidency for July, said in an e-mail he had "received a request from the Ambassador of Japan for a meeting of the Security Council (on) the launch of missiles by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea." |
