The Italian foreign ministry in Rome
said on Monday that it "condemns" the launch of missiles by
North Korea. "The repeated missile tests" and "the development
of a nuclear arsenal" are a "threat to international peace and
security and an open violation of the Security Council
resolutions," a statement read. North Korea "must abandon the
development of a missile and nuclear arsenal and stop the path
taken of challenging the international community and self
isolation," it said. "Italy is ready to contribute to a firm,
cohesive response from the international community".
