Following North Korea’s failed satellite launch on 27 May, a Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) spokesperson gave a statement.
An FCDO spokesperson said:
North Korea’s failed satellite launch on 27 May is another breach of multiple UN Security Council resolutions (UNSCRs). Unlawful launches continue to destabilise the peace and security of the Korean Peninsula.
