SKorea Urges Global Effort Against NKorean Nukes South Korea is urging the international community to make a united effort against North Korea's nuclear program, as it has against the use of chemical weapons in Syria. Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se on Friday told the U.N. General Assembly that North Korea launched long-range missiles and conducted a nuclear test this year in "blatant violation" of Security Council resolutions. Yun says nations should work together "to prevent the advent of another nuclear-armed state." He also criticizes the North's "inhumane" decision to postpone planned reunions of families separated by the 1950-53 Korean War that were due to happen this week. The reunions had been seen as a sign of reduced tensions. Yun says South Korea stands ready to help North Korea if it changes its ways. North Korea speaks next week.
