Trump: Pyongyang insults China with missile test

washington - US President Donald Trump called the North Korea's last missile test Monday for an insult to China. 'North Korea showed a great lack of respect for neighbor China by firing another ballistic missile,' said the president.

The North Koreans launched a short distance racing on Monday. The projectile landed after a flight of about 450 kilometers in the sea. It was the ninth time this year that the Stalinist regime in Pyongyang conducted a missile test.

China called on all parties involved to 'keep calm' on Monday and set 'reluctant'. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed in a statement the hope that the unrest on the Korean peninsula could be curtailed by means of 'peaceful consultation'.
