Moon says North Korea developing nuclear-armed missile would be “red line”

Marking 100 days in office, President warns further provocations will lead to new sanctions

North Korea successfully developing a nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) would be a "red line" for Seoul, South Korean President Moon Jae-in said on Thursday at a press conference marking his first 100 days in office.

“The red line is North Korea completing its development of ICBM and weaponizing it by mounting a nuclear warhead onto it,” Moon said.
