BONN (Kyodo) -- The foreign ministers of Japan, the United States and South Korea agreed Thursday in Bonn to closely coordinate in dealing with North Korea's test-firing Sunday of a ballistic missile in violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.
Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida, U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung Se urged Pyongyang to exercise restraint.
