World leaders voice anger over N Korean N-test

Al P, Washington
Global leaders quickly directed their anger at North Korea on Monday for carrying out a nuclear bomb test that US President Barack Obama called a threat to world peace.
While South Korea put its military on alert, the UN Security Council called an emergency meeting to discuss the North Korean explosion -- a much bigger follow-up to its first nuclear test in 2006 - - and reports that it also tested a short-range missile.
"These actions, while not a surprise given its statements and actions to date, are a matter of grave concern to all nations," Obama said in a statement,
"North Korea's attempts to develop nuclear weapons, as well as its ballistic missile programme, constitute a threat to international peace and security."
"The danger posed by North Korea's threatening activities warrants action by the international community," said the US president, whose military chief of staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, said the North was becoming "increasingly belligerent".
South Korea's President Lee Myung-Bak chaired a special national security council meeting and his spokesman, Lee Dong-Kwan, said the North’s test posed a "grave challenge" to international non-proliferation efforts.
In Japan, government spokesman Takeo Kawamura warned of "stern action against North Korea."
"We have to coordinate among Japan, South
Korea and the United States and take firm action. For us, it raises tensions in the region extremely," said Prime Minister Taro Aso, whose country led calls for the UN Security Council emergency session which was to be held later Monday in New York.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, himself South Korean, said he was "deeply disturbed" at events.
The main powers on the council all strongly condemned North Korea with France urging sanctions against Kim Jong-Il's Stalinist administration.
Even China, the secretive North's closest international ally, called on its neighbour to ease tensions and expressed "resolute opposition" to the blast.
"China strongly demands that North Korea keeps its promise of denuclearisation and ceases all actions that could further worsen the situation," the Chinese foreign ministry said in a statement.
Russia, which has sought a role in efforts to end North Korea's nuclear weapons programme, called the test a threat to peace.
" The latest steps by North Korea provoke an escalation of tensions in northeast Asia and threaten tire security and stability of the region," the Russian foreign ministry said in a statement.
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown denounced the nuclear test as a "danger to the world”. France called on the UN Security Council to impose tough new sanctions against North Korea.
