"UN SANCTIONS MAY NOT BE ENOUGH TO STOP N. KOREA"
CONSERVATIVE CHOSUN ILBO EDITORIALIZED (06/11):
"The significance of this resolution is that it shows the
international community's determination not to accept a
nuclear-armed North Korea and not to hesitate to punish the
Stalinist country for provocations, such as nuclear tests. UNSC
sanctions, however, are not the ultimate solution to North Korea's
nuclear and missile issues. The UNSC has imposed numerous economic
sanctions against North Korea, but none of them has resolved the
issues. The ROK, the U.S., Japan, China, and Russia, the
participants in the Six-Party Talks as well as key players in this
UNSC discussion to sanction North Korea, should look for a
fundamental solution to the North's nuclear and missile issues."
