leadership in pyongyang says they violate the agreements reached with presidents trump and moon.ker in seoul has been following this for us and explains what is different about this latest launch. these kind of missiles are similarto the short—range missiles tested a few weeks ago. it means they are designed to fly low and very fast and analysts believe north korea is developing weapons capable of avoiding detection by radar and avoiding being shot down by the kind of missile defence systems that are based here in south korea. either way, north korea is developing weapons despite being able to talk to south korea and the united states. these kind of tests are always the way of north korea saying, look, we're to tell you something here and it might well be that trying to push the united states and prod the trump administration into talks. so far, donald trump has brushed these off, the short—range missile tests. other countries do them, he said, but how long does the united states turned its back on how far is north korea prepared to go to kind of prod the united states into actio
