The Government of Chile condemns in the strongest terms the recent nuclear test carried out by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), which constitutes a serious provocation and a threat to peace and international security of both the Korean peninsula and the International System.
The Nuclear Test infringes the norms of International Law and recent resolution of the Security Council, such as 2321, 2270 and earlier, which make a plea to the DPRK not to reintroduce nuclear detonations and to cease all related activities that are contrary to the United Nations mandate, as well as the Non-Proliferation International System.
The Government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) must refrain from causing further nuclear detonations, respect the rules of the international system and advance in the necessary arrangements to regain the status of a non-nuclear-weapon State under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) by submitting its nuclear facilities to the safeguard inspections of the International Atomic Energy Organization.
