US aims for UN vote on N.Korea sanctions within weeks
United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley aims to put to a vote within weeks a UN Security Council resolution to impose stronger sanctions on North Korea over its long-range ballistic missile test, said several senior UN diplomats.
Haley told some UN diplomats late last week of the ambitious timeline for a UN response to North Korea's launch on Tuesday of a missile that some experts believe could have the range to reach Alaska, and parts of the US West Coast.
