An FCDO spokesperson said:
The UK condemns the DPRK's launch of a solid fuel intermediate-range ballistic missile on Sunday 14 January. This action is a clear breach of multiple UN Security Council Resolutions.
This repeated cycle of testing is deeply damaging for regional stability and further threatens peace and security in the Korean Peninsula.
The UK strongly urges the DPRK to refrain from illegal launches, swiftly return to dialogue and abandon its nuclear and ballistic missile programmes in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner.
