The <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/united-nations/" target="_blank">UN</a> Security Council should implement "significant measures" after the latest intercontinental ballistic missile launch by <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/north-korea" target="_blank">North Korea</a>, foreign ministers of the <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/g7/" target="_blank">Group of Seven</a> major industrialised nations said on Sunday. At the request of the <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/us/" target="_blank">US</a>, the Security Council is set to discuss North Korea in a meeting on Monday, after the latest missile test launches this year. "[North Korea's] actions demand a united and robust response by the international community," the ministers of the US, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/japan" target="_blank">Japan</a>, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/canada/" target="_blank">Canada</a>, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/germany/" target="_blank">Germany</a>, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/britain/" target="_blank">Britain</a>, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/france/" target="_blank">France</a> and <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/italy/" target="_blank">Italy</a> said. Pyongyang on Friday tested a ballistic missile capable of reaching the US mainland shortly after warning of "fiercer military responses" to Washington increasing its security presence in the region. The G7 said Friday's test was a "reckless act" and "another blatant violation" of UN resolutions. "The unprecedented series of unlawful ballistic missile launches conducted by [North Korea] in 2022 … pose a serious threat to regional and international peace and security," the G7 said. It said the country "cannot and will never have the status of a nuclear-weapon state".
