World's Top 70 Countries Urge North Korea to scrap its Nuclear Weapons

World's Top 70 Countries have urged North Korea to scrap its nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles and related programs, decrying the "undiminished threat" posed to world peace.
Signatories included the United States and South Korea, as well as nations in Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Europe.
Russia and China, supporters of Pyongyang, did not sign the document drafted by France.
The appeal comes after Pyongyang fired 2 short-range missiles on Thursday following an earlier drill last week.
