The UN Security Council is considering imposing further sanctions on North Korea after it carried out a nuclear test, the British ambassador said today.
"We will be working with others on a resolution on further sanctions," Ambassador Matthew Rycroft told reporters.
The United States, Japan and other members of the 15-member council were working on a draft text that would strongly condemn what Pyongyang has called a hydrogen bomb test, diplomats said.
