The foreign ministry urged North Korea to cooperate with Seoul's efforts to promote peace on the Korean Peninsula on Tuesday, shortly after Pyongyang fired multiple missiles in its latest missile launch. According to the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), North Korea launched multiple close-range ballistic missiles (CRBMs) from the Jongju area in North Pyongan Province toward the West Sea at around 1 p.m., marking its eighth missile launch this year. "We once again call on North Korea to respond to our peace policy and efforts to ease tensions," Foreign Ministry spokesperson Park Il said at a regular press briefing. "As a government that firmly supports nuclear nonproliferation, we will continue efforts to make substantive progress in resolving the North Korean nuclear issue through a phased and practical approach in close coordination with the international community while maintaining the goal of complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."
