North Korea's rocket launch could lead to new era of 'Star Wars' missile defence

Following an emergency meeting on Sunday night, the United Nations Security Council condemned the rocket launch and said it would soon adopt a new sanctions resolution in response. A statement said that launches using ballistic missile technology, "even if characterised as a satellite's launch or space launch vehicle", contribute to North Korea's development of systems to deliver nuclear weapons. It added that using ballistic missile technology was a violation of four Security Council resolutions dating back to 2006.
