US envoy says N.Korea tests make 'mockery' of UN

Description

The US envoy to the United Nations says North Korea's barrage of missile tests made a mockery of the Security Council in veiled criticism of China and Russia. "These members have bent over backwards to justify the DPRK's repeated violations, and in turn they have enabled the DPRK and made a mockery of this council," Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield tells a Security Council session, using the North's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
