VIENNA \u2014 The U.S. is urging continued worldwide pressure on North Korea to force it to renounce its nuclear arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The demand at the 35-nation board meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency comes after the agency cited satellite imagery indicating that Pyongyang is “further developing its nuclear capabilities.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chief U.S. IAEA delegate Henry S. Ensher told the meeting Wednesday that “enhanced pressure remains essential to compel North Korea to correct course.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, Pyongyang has test-exploded three nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
