Kerry: international response to nuclear test

US Secretary of State, John Kerry, has reiterated the need for an international response to the nuclear test North Korea conducted.

The communist country said Wednesday to have a successful underground nuclear test conducted with a hydrogen bomb.

Republican leaders of the House of Representatives (similar to the Lower House), meanwhile consider a vote soon on expanding sanctions toward North Korea. In addition, countries affected cooperate with North Korea. The idea is for foreign companies to do business with Pyongyang stricter punishments.
