North Korea warns against UN sanctions over rocket launch 

North Korea has warned that any UN sanctions as a result of its upcoming satellite launch would be viewed as "a hostile action", and would cause the breakdown of the six nation nuclear disarmament talks. The US, South Korea and Japan suspect that the long range rocket on North Korea's East Coast launch pad is not a commercial satellite, but rather a disguised missile test. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned of consequences if Pyongyang went ahead with its plan to fire a missile. The rocket is believed to be a long-range Taepo-dong 2. North Korea has given international agencies notice of the rocket's planned trajectory, which would take it over Japan. Analysts said the notice was given to help the North argue the rocket launch does not violate UN sanctions put in place after it test-launched a series of missiles in 2006.
