Washington Post : North Korea’s announcement that it plans to launch a satellite into orbit later this month has stirred up unease in many countries. In the US, the plan has been condemned by the Obama administration as a violation of a United Nations Security Council resolution that prohibits North Korea from conducting any test or launch using “ballistic missile technology,” writes Chico Harlan for the Washington Post. Meanwhile, in South Korea, there are worries that the launch could dramatically affect the upcoming South Korean presidential election on 19 December.
