Congressman Sherman Denounces Reported North Korean Nuclear Test

Statement

Congressman Brad Sherman (D-CA), a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and ranking member of the Subcommittee on Asia, released the following statement following claims that North Korea detonated a hydrogen bomb.

"Whether or not the event in North Korea was a hydrogen bomb test, it is abundantly clear that the Kim Jong Un regime has failed to live up to its international commitments and is a danger to international security. The U.S. government, regional powers--especially China--and the United Nations should exert the maximum possible pressure on North Korea to abandon its reckless nuclear program, and most importantly, prevent North Korea from proliferating to other countries."
