BBC World Service - Newshour, North Korea Missile Test 'due to Kim Jong-un Paranoia'

UN ambassador says Washington will tighten the screws on Pyongyang after missile test

UN ambassador says Washington will tighten the screws on Pyongyang after missile test.

The United States has warned North Korea that new missile tests are not the way to secure talks with Washington. The UN ambassador, Nikki Haley, accused the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, of being in a state of paranoia. Also in the programme: government troops in Ivory Coast confront mutinous soldiers, and an outbreak of cholera in Yemen overwhelms hospitals with four patients to a bed.
