The start took place a day earlier than expected. North Korea had recently informed Japan that it planned to launch a satellite between Wednesday and December 1. The Japanese government announced Tuesday that it would work with partner countries to pressure North Korea not to carry out the launch.
North Korea failed twice earlier this year in its attempt to put a military reconnaissance satellite into orbit. According to experts, the technology of space rockets and long-range military missiles differs little. The United States and its allies South Korea and Japan condemned North Korea’s failed missile launches in May and August. They accuse North Korea of using technology directly related to its ballistic missile program.
UN resolutions ban North Korea from launching ballistic missiles from any range. Depending on the design, such missiles can also be equipped with a nuclear warhead.
