The UN Security Council may consider the draft resolution on new sanctions against North Korea next week. <br/><br/>Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said in a briefing in Beijing today that all the permanent members of the UN Security Council agreed on a new draft resolution regarding North Korea's nuclear program. <br/><br/>On September 5th, Pyongyang launched three ballistic missiles in the direction of the Sea of Japan. Several days later it conducted successful test of a nuclear warhead, which is believed to be the fifth and largest blast since Pyongyang began pursuing nuclear and ballistic missile programs. <br/><br/>The incidents have sparked concern in neighboring Japan, as North Korean missiles reached Japanese waters after flying over 600 miles from the launch site during early September's ballistic test. <br/><br/>The UN Security Council condemned the test as a repeated violation of the its resolutions.
