Blinken says North Korea risks further isolation after Japan missile incident

SANTIAGO (Reuters) – U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Wednesday warned that North Korea risked additional condemnation and isolation from the worldwide neighborhood if it continued its “provocations” after Pyongyang flew a missile over Japan on Tuesday.

“I believe what we’re seeing is that in the event that they proceed down this highway, it can solely enhance condemnation, enhance the isolation, enhance the steps which are taken in response to their actions,” he stated at a press convention in Chile.
