1. (U) Following CDA's presentation of demarche points per
reftels, the Bosnian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a
statement October 11 condemning North Korea for its nuclear
test.


2. (U) Begin text of MFA announcement:

The nuclear test that was, according to statements of high
ranking North Korean officials, carried out Monday morning
despite all warnings and political and diplomatic efforts of
the six countries group could have an extremely negative
impact on the global process of combating nuclear weapons
proliferation.

Considering the fact that these actions by North Korea not
only lead to increased tensions but also represent a serious
threat to peace and security in the world, Bosnia and
Herzegovina joins the appeals for Pyongyang to stop
developing nuclear programs and to refrain from activities if
this and similar nature in the future.
