The United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Kelly Craft, warned North Korea on Monday that "provocations should be avoided."

Ambassador Kraft spoke at a UN Security Council meeting convened to discuss the North Korean missile issue that day. "The last year and a half ago, the United States has continued negotiations with North Korea." You must get off. "

Ambassador Kraft spoke in June of last year's Singapore-North Korea summit, saying, "We are prepared to take concrete steps simultaneously and concurrently towards that agreement. We are ready to be flexible in how we approach it." Said.

"We've mentioned many times that we're ready to go through a comprehensive process," he said.

We warned of possible missile provocations.

"North Korea is threatening to go a new way," he said. "This means that we can launch a space projectile using long-range ballistic missile technology, or even launch an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)."

"Nuclear and missile tests will not bring stability to North Korea, nor will it help us achieve economic opportunities."

The statement is interpreted as a statement that the United States is willing to make a flexible deal with the North American negotiations, but it is difficult to tolerate provocations that are above a certain level.

Prior to the Security Council meeting, Ambassador Kraft warned, "North Korea should do its part. North Korea should avoid provocation."

"We didn't ask North Korea to do everything before we could do anything," said Ambassador Kraft. "We are ready to be flexible. But we cannot solve this problem alone."

The Security Council meeting was convened at the request of the United States.

The State Department said it is discussing the possibility of North Korea's recent missile launches and provocations.
