RFE: U.S. Says Consensus Reached With China To Stop North Korea Missile Tests
U.S. national security adviser H.R. McMaster says there is now an "international consensus," including "China and the Chinese leadership," that North Korea's missile tests cannot be allowed to continue.
McMaster made the remarks in Kabul after the U.S. military announced that North Korea had failed in another attempt to test a missile early on April 16.
The U.S. Pacific Command said it detected the failed missile launch just hours before U.S. Vice President Mike Pence landed in Seoul on an official visit to South Korea.
It said the missile "blew up almost immediately" after the attempted launch.

Cannot help think the koreans might have blown up their own rocket as way of responding to the situation. They would have given the US the finger by going ahead witj launching the rocket, but at the same time avoiding any derived consequences because the launch was a failure.
