CRI听力:Reaction after North Fires 2 Ballistic Missiles
South Korea's Foreign Ministry has condemned an early morning ballistic missile launch by North Korea, and called on its neighbour to halt further provocative behaviour.
Cho Tai-young is the South Korea's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson.
"The South Korean government demands that North Korea stop such provocative behaviour and carries out its responsibilities and promises towards the international community."
North Korea test-fired two medium-range Rodong missiles on Wednesday morning for the first time since 2009.
Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga also condemned the missile launch, but said upcoming talks with Pyongyang would continue as planned.
North Korea and Japan are to restart high-level government-to-government talks on Sunday after a 16-month hiatus.
According to the South Korean Defence Ministry, the missiles flew about 650 kilometres off North Korea's east coast.
It wasn't immediately clear where the missiles splashed down.
The North Korean side made no immediate comment on the launch.
