(Reuters) -The U.S. military said that North Korea’s launch of a ballistic missile earlier on Friday does not pose an immediate threat to the United States or its allies, but it “highlights the destabilizing impact” of Pyongyang’s actions.
“We are aware of the missile launch and are consulting closely with our allies and partners,” the U.S. military said in a statement, adding that the U.S. remained ready to defend itself and allies in the region.
