[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] The office of President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol has stated that measures are necessary regarding North Korea's development and launch activities of new intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), which violate UN Security Council resolutions.

Kim Eun-hye, spokesperson for the president-elect, held a briefing on the 12th at the People Power Party central office in Yeouido, Seoul, and conveyed the position of the incoming Yoon Seok-yeol administration, saying, "North Korea's violation of Security Council resolutions requires corresponding actions from the international community."

She added, "The Security Council resolutions prohibit ballistic missile launches or projectile launches. However, North Korea conducted a total of nine test launches: seven times in January and twice in February and March. One was a cruise missile, and eight are presumed to be ballistic missiles, all of which violate the Security Council resolutions."

She further stated, "The president-elect has consistently emphasized that North Korea's provocations violate Security Council resolutions, and I reaffirm that the international community must cooperate and condemn these actions with a unified voice."

Spokesperson Kim noted, "Since he is the president-elect, it is not natural to provide comments and remarks on every situation as during the candidacy period. However, because President-elect Yoon's position has been consistent, I am reiterating it once again."
