Beijing opposed to DPRK launch

By Wang Qingyun | China Daily | Updated: 2017-02-14 07:42

China voiced opposition to the latest missile launch by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and urged all parties involved to shoulder their responsibility to solve the Korean Peninsula issue peacefully through dialogue.

On Sunday morning, the DPRK launched a missile that analysts said was meant to test the administration of US President Donald Trump. It is the first such launch since Trump took office on January 20.

The DPRK's Korean Central News Agency said the missile was a Pukguksong-2, a Korean-style, new type of strategic weapons system that can be equipped "with a nuclear warhead".
