Japan PM Abe says North Korea's missile launch absolutely unacceptable
PALM BEACH, Fla., Feb 11 (Reuters) - North Korea's test launch of a ballistic missile was absolutely unacceptable, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said at a joint news conference on Saturday with U.S. President Donald Trump in Florida.
North Korea fired a ballistic missile into the sea off its east coast early on Sunday, South Korea's military said, the first time the isolated state has tested such a device since Trump's election.
The test came a day after Abe's summit meeting with Trump, during which Trump confirmed the US commitment to the security of Japan.
