WASHINGTON - The United States on Saturday sternly admonished North Korea against actions that could "further destabilize" the region, amid Pyongyang's claims that it successfully tested a new engine designed for an inter-continental ballistic missile
"We have seen the reports of North Korea's claims to have developed new engine technology for its ICBMs," read a statement from State Department Deputy Spokesman Mark Toner.
"We call on North Korea to refrain from actions and rhetoric that further destabilize the region and focus instead on taking concrete steps toward fulfilling its commitments and international obligations," Toner said.
