New York, April 07, SPA -- The five veto-wielding powers and Japan continued wrestling Monday over Japan's insistence on a sharpened UN resolution against North Korea for testing a ballistic missile over the weekend, DPA reported.

Tokyo requested the emergency Security Council sessions afterPyongyang sent a missile over Japanese territory that fell into thePacific Ocean, according to US and Japanese officials. North Koreainsists it put a satellite into orbit, but no evidence of the orbiterhas been found. Japanese UN Ambassador Yukio Takasu pushed Monday for a cleardirective to Pyongyang that it violated a 2006 UN resolution thatforbade North Korea to test ballistic missiles.
