The activities that contributed to Pyongyang's development of nuclear weapons have been the cause of concern for the United Nations Security Council. The Council has condemned North Korea's latest submarine-launched ballistic test.

Kim Jong Un, North Korea's leader, was the one who oversaw the said recent activity and coined it as a success. As reported by ABC News, North Korea's state-run news agency, KCNA, reaffirmed that the test confirmed and reinforced the reliability of the North Korean style underwater launching system.

KCNA also said that the test perfectly met the methodical specifications for carrying out underwater attack operations. Kim reaffirmed that Pyongyang is now capable of hitting the heads of the South Korean puppet forces and the US imperialist anytime he wants.

The Security Council has been expressing their determination on making significant measures to closely monitor the situation. Pyongyang's recent submarine-launched ballistic missile test has been its latest demonstration of its military force which includes the launch of a long-range rocket in February as per Reuters.

According to The Wall Street Journal, North Korea's launch using a ballistic missile technology is a very clear violation of a number of U.N Security Council resolutions. John Kirby, the State Department spokesman, said they are calling North Korea to refrain from actions that will further destabilize the region. He added that the country must instead focus on taking tangible steps to fulfilling its commitment and international obligations.

China was displeased with the tension on the Korean peninsula following North Korea's actions. The members of the Security Council have advised imposing harsh punishments on North Korea which include starving it of money, following its daring activity. The council has also called on various states to implement its sanctions on North Korea.

The council has been constantly emphasizing that North Korea's development and testing of its new ballistic missile capabilities regardless if it's a success or not is a clear violation of the council's regulations.
