Dhaka concerned over N Korea missile launch

Bangladesh has expressed deep concern at the recent launching of ballistic missile by Democratic People`s Republic of Korea (DPRK).

"By launching the missile, DPRK has violated its obligations under the relevant resolutions of the United Nations Security Council," a foreign ministry statement said today.

It read that Bangladesh as a signatory to the NPT and CTBT is committed towards working with the international community for renunciation of the use of force in international relations and for general and complete disarmament.

"Therefore, Bangladesh urges the DPRK to refrain from any action that could impact adversely the peace and stability in the region and beyond," the statement added.
