U.N. urges North Korea to cancel nuclear test« Thread Started on Oct 6, 2006, 6:55pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------U.N. urges North Korea to cancel nuclear testPOSTED: 1814 GMT (0214 HKT), October 6, 2006 read source: http://edition.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiap ... htmlUNITED NATIONS (AP) -- The U.N. Security Council urged North Korea on Friday to cancel its planned nuclear test and return immediately to talks on scrapping its nuclear weapons program, warning that exploding a nuclear device would threaten international peace and security.A statement adopted unanimously by the council and read at a formal meeting by the council president, Japan's U.N. Ambassador Kenzo Oshima, warned of unspecified council action if North Korea ignores international calls not to conduct a test.The presidential statement, unlike a weaker press statement, becomes part of the Security Council's formal record.
